there are many things to do: shaping and observing the land according to permaculture, DIY projects, help in the household, projects with the kids, help us with gardening, playing with our dog Yuma and much more. We'd like to integrate your own ideas into our processes. Feel free to choose what suits you best and follow you're rhythm (we were volunteers for 2 years ourselves).
This depends when you will be visiting. In summer for example we try to do all the work before 10 a.m. or after sunset (which is luckily quiet early here since we face north-east). Some tasks require coordination and more people working together others you can do completely by yourself once you know what you have to do.
It would be good if you bring clothes and shoes that are suitable for outdoor work.
Please only use hygiene products that are bio-degradable. If you don't have anything with you, we can provide for that!
