Volunteers & Pilgrims, you’re welcome! We’re dedicated to sustainable living and starting off-grid permaculture and food forest. Permaculture is about diverting human effort towards rehabilitative purposes that repair damaged ecologies as well as damaged societies.
Food and accommodation: volunteering exchange
Accommodation on the farm is in exchange for 4 hours of help per day.
For the first week, we ask a contribution of $5/day and person,
for the second week $3/day and person and for any more days nothing.
(For a stay without physical help we ask a contribution of $10/day and Person).
This contribution is needed to buy amenities for you & the volunteers, amenities like:
- mosquito nets,
- bedding,
- plates and pots and
- utensils for working.
Diet
All food that is growing on the farm will be shared and can be eaten.
Requirements
- Minimum stay for volunteering is 2 weeks, exceptions are possible but longer stays are welcome.
- You need to bring a copy of your passport and visa plus 1 pass-foto for the local authorities!
- No alcohol or synthetic drugs on the farm!
Activities
We are going to plant lots of different vegetables, trees and bushes in the rainy season, during the dry season we are more busy with watering, mulching, making compost and plants in the nursery and kitchen garden.

No special skills needed but goodwill to make the world a better one, to stay tuned, in contact with life and help create a sustainable food forest. We are also looking for long-time volunteers and people with the following skills:
