Détails du programme

Hi, I am Guillermo and The Jungle Hub is my dream of living sustainably in nature come true! Together with our long-term volunteers, we are guardians of this 4 hectares of paradise that we have been regenerating since 2013. We moved here permanently in 2020, started hosting volunteers in 2021, and retreats in 2023.

For us, Permaculture includes all aspects of life – from building houses to preparing food. We aim to create a permanent culture and inspire others. Completely off-grid, we are regenerating the ecosystem and healing ourselves in the process. We build using local materials and serve healthy meals. We love music, bonfire singing, yoga, meditation, and discussing spirituality.

We established Jungle Hub as a nature retreat center because we believe that connecting to nature reconnects us to our true selves. This is our purpose and we are dedicated to achieving it.


Activités et horaires

As a volunteer for this position you get to engage in various hands-on, outdoor activities such as water management, soil regeneration, building & maintaining paths, taking down dead trees and keeping the gardens beautiful. You can also assist with kitchen duties, such as preparing food, washing dishes or mopping floors. During retreats, you'll also help to clean & prepare rooms for our (max. 4) guests.

Other optional tasks include working with plants (weeding, planting, watering, etc.), helping with shopping, or engaging in art projects. We don't host retreats every week, so you'll experience both retreat and non-retreat periods, allowing for a diverse and enriching experience. We offer our volunteers plenty of free time to explore our paths and enjoy our wonderful private waterfall.

Additionally, you are welcome to offer workshops or activities suitable to the retreat.


Règles

A contribution of $30 per day must be paid in advance upon arrival (cash only, Costa Rican currency). Pick-up and drop-off is always on Fridays; otherwise, volunteers must pay for their own taxi. Volunteers are expected to stay at the farm for the entire duration of their stay, except for Fridays when they can join us at the farmers market or run errands in the city. Punctuality and a serious work ethic are essential, as we depend on your help to run the retreat center smoothly.
