Volunteer With Us!
Our Creative Residencies/Work Exchange Program is an integral way of becoming a part of our community. It allows the participants to cover their accommodation costs, a substantial part of their expenses, through their passions. This will give them the opportunity to engage in life long relationships and learn what it takes to live on a permaculture farm/community.
We prioritize experienced work exchangers that cater to specific talents and skills, focusing on the realms of tropical farming, natural building, construction, regenerative arts, and conscious cooking. Our aim is to provide a nurturing environment where individuals can immerse themselves in these disciplines, fostering their creativity and honing their expertise. We are looking for independent individuals who are capable to take initiative and add value without the need of constant supervision.
Please note that accommodation will be in shared rooms or private depending on availability.
Work Exchangers will contribute to 15$/day for basic costs.
If any retreat or event is taking place in the community during the same time period, work exchangers will support in the well being of the event or will be asked to leave.
