Règles
1. Punctuality & Commitment: Volunteers are expected to arrive on time for daily activities and commit to the agreed-upon duration of their stay. Consistency is key to maintaining the farm's daily operations.
2. Respect for Local Culture: Our farm is located in a culturally rich area, and we ask all volunteers to be respectful of local customs and traditions. Take the time to learn about the Chagga and Maasai community and their way of life.
3. Safety First: Safety is a top priority. Volunteers must follow safety protocols when using farm tools, working with plants, and interacting with livestock. Always wear appropriate clothing (sturdy shoes, gloves) and protective gear. We do have Public liability insurance cover all volunteer activities and tours!
4. Team Spirit: This is a communal project, and volunteers are encouraged to collaborate, share ideas, and support one another. A positive attitude and willingness to help others are essential.
