More than a volunteer program, this is an invitation to slow down. Learning happens through presence, by paying attention to the relationships between human and nature -as we are part of it-. It is a space for mindful work, quiet reflection, and conscious living.
All meals provided are nourishing, homemade and fully vegan.
There are many activities that you can join in your free time such as yoga and dance sessions. You may also walk around or hike the surrounding mountains.
This experience is ideal for people who feel called to restore the earth, deepen their ecological awareness, to listen — to the land, to the silence, and to yourself.
As a volunteer, you will participate in hands-on activities that support the growth and maintenance of this living ecosystem such as:
– Planting and caring for trees and plants
– Soil regeneration practices
– Weeding, mulching and composting
– Supporting biodiversity
– General garden maintenance
• No smoking or drug use on the property
• Quiet hours after 21:00 to 06:00
