Program Details

We would love your help in creating and maintaining our organic gardens, tending to the hundreds of young trees we have planted, planting more trees, general land care as well as assisting with natural building projects when these arise - we are a big fan of geodesic domes! Alongside the land work you can enjoy yoga and Tai Chi with qualified teachers, and in-house massages with qualified therapists (at extra cost).
