This spring/summer our mission will be more focused on building diverse structures with bamboo, by combining them with other materials. Our newborn son represents the fifth generation of the family to inhabit this territory, which in recent years has for the first time become an agroforestry-managed area in the midst of the Atlantic Forest and within the city of Ilhabela, at the same time.

Boua Kava! Thanks for the work and thanks for the fermented ones!!

My first experience as a volunteer could not have been better! 🌿 I connected with nature, I learned about bamboo, garden beds, seedlings, composts, non-conventional edible plants (PANCs), and I was able to unleash my creativity by refurbishing wooden toys. Kiko is amazing, always open to communication, feedback, and suggestions, in addition to offering all the necessary support. His family is also wonderful and has Nega, the best dog in the world! ❤️ Being in the Atlantic Forest, it's natural to encounter insects and other animals, so it's worth being prepared for this coexistence. A very educational experience. I recommend.

What a wonderful experience volunteering! Very grateful for the trust and Kiko's eagerness to conduct a small study about the area's clays; it feels really good to be able to share my love for ceramics..may that little oven be a seed sprouting strong! Kiko, Thais and Chico..human beings who sow love and awareness on the earth, who dwell in harmony and respect for all that exists, who remember and help keep the Caiçara culture alive..pure beauty to meet them..until new encounters and synchronizations!💚☘️

I 100% recommend this volunteering for anyone who enjoys contact with nature and learning about permaculture and plants in a quiet and welcoming place.
Kiko knows what it means to be a very good host, clear in the instructions and tasks, respectful, flexible, always willing to listen and to teach. Only gratitude for the space and the hosts; I learned a lot. ,💚

Spectacular! The host Kiko is a 10/10 person! Excellent communication! Here I learned to identify and prepare some PANCs (Non-Conventional Edible Plants), I was able to put my hands in the soil, helping him to create beds and some agroforestry practices, in addition to hearing plenty of stories about Caiçara culture and Ilhabela. Highly recommended!
