La experiencia

The ultimate goal of farming is not the growing of crops, but the cultivation and perfection of human beings. – Masanobu Fukuoka

If you have a dream of owning a farm, or garden, someday but have never actually farmed, then this program is designed to help you decide if this lifestyle is for you.

This is a workshare program to give you some experience and knowledge of what it takes to have a farm or large garden.

Programa detallado

Applicants should have the following;
- Minimum of 18 years of age
- Strong work ethic
- A fit and able body and mind (manual work is often repetitive and strenuous.)
- You must be able to collaborate at least 5 hours a day
- Excellent communication skills
- Work with a task-based approach (as opposed to a time-based system). This is farming!

- All volunteers must contribute to work in the community garden. There will be fresh produce for you to pick and seeds/seedlings for you to plant to replace what was used.
