The Experience
Our organic farm is a Sustainable Living Project initiated by a small group of people in Thailand. It is run by me, Pinan Jim (a Buddhist Monk for 16 years), and my wife Pinan Tea Kumsrisom. You can help us to plant seeds, grow vegetables and pick it. Also, assist in the kitchen using the food we harvest and help with construction. We also have meditation practices that volunteers can join!

I would recommend HHH to anyone looking to learn more about their own mind it was my first Worldpackers collaboration and I learn so much about myself from Pinan Jim's teachings. As soon as I arrived I was welcomed into the family and made to feel safe and comfortable. There is so much you can learn here and you can tailor the experience depending on what you came looking for. I came looking to learn about permaculture which I did but I left with a new understanding about Buddhist philosophy and Lana culture. I feel very grateful for my time at HHH and I will defiantly be returning.

The project was my first international & worlpackers volunteering experience. I would recommend this to anyone who is open to immersing in Thai/Lanna culture, learning about buddhism, working & living with nature and being away from the noice of the world. The host family is extremely welcoming & warm, sharing meals together and learning from each other. The eco-garden is in full bloom right now and within a week I feel a lot healthier and happier about my relationship with food. I wish I could've stayed longer as there is so much to learn in permaculture and their lifestyle.
