Grow, Change, Nourish Lives: Volunteer in Regenerative Agriculture at Casa Guatemala!
Granja de los Niños: Farm of the Children - At Casa Guatemala, we believe in the power of agriculture to transform lives. Our farm isn't just about growing food; it's about fostering nutritional education, empowering communities, and building a sustainable future. Through permaculture principles, we're creating gardens that serve as vibrant showcases of diverse, nutrient-rich crops in our region of Rio Dulce that are essential for combating dietary deficiencies prevalent in many local villages. By participating in the Granja de los Niños, you're not just tending to plants; you're sowing the seeds of positive change. Become a part of a growing network dedicated to ecological sustainability and economic empowerment. Through collaboration and shared knowledge, we're forging connections that extend far

Reglas
As you are working at Casa Guatemala (a private community with children) all of our Volunteers will be asked to provide a Criminal Report, and we ask that they do not drink, do drugs or smoke cigarettes. If they do smoke, we ask that they be very careful, and smoke in designated areas only, as we have the jungle and thatched room communities to protect.
