Where do I even begin... the community has been SUCH an experience. Today makes 10 weeks here and it feels so bittersweet to know that the time has absolutely flown by. The community here is so sacred. As is the land itself. I knew Costa Rica was powerful, but wow!! Being immersed in the jungle here has humbled me in so many ways. It's definitely an experience that brings you back to our roots—reminding you what it is actually like to be a part of nature, rather than living separate from it. Everyone here is such a beautiful soul. 100/5 stars. I will absolutely be back!🤍

I came to the community without expectations. It transformed me in quiet ways. The land feels alive jungle paths and waterfalls all around. Food comes fresh and organic from the greenhouses. I learned about permaculture and soil regeneration through simple daily work. Ihelped process cacao as medicine (I love it so much) and even made my own chocolate bars. Volunteer days were fun, always something meaningful to do together with the community. Far from everything, yet close to nature, there's space to move, dance, play, create, heal, rest, and find solitude. It brought me closer to myself. Pura vida!

The experience at the community is unique! It is a place that invites you to learn about Permaculture, to do introspection, to get to know yourself and to be connected.
The values of respect for others, nature, and abundance are very present.
The activities are simple and done in groups; you learn a lot about sustainable living.
I totally recommend it! 🫶🌿

The community is a unique experience! You have to live it to understand it, a deep connection with nature, with yourself! It’s 100% worth it, to the point that we extended our stay!
It is necessary to align with the energy of the place and come with purpose and dedication to understand the community. I invite you to experience it personally!🙌🏻

Mi mes de voluntariado en la comunidad, Costa Rica, fue una experiencia transformadora. El lugar es increíble, con muchas actividades como yoga, meditación y ceremonias de cacao/temazcal. El carisma de Megan y Marvin, junto a los chicos de la granja, me permitieron aprender y aportar. Fue un mes que voló, creando una profunda conexión con la naturaleza y cultura local. La emotiva ceremonia de cierre, plantando un árbol, dejó una huella. Deseo volver y seguir colaborando con este proyecto.
