LombosGarden

We are a non-profit project where we share information about meditation, oriental and western natural remedies, healthy vegetarian food and how to grow and prepare your own.
Since 2020 our focus is on inner growth and staying healthy improving the soil of our garden, and planting new trees; healing ourselves and giving our energy to help nature to heal.
Volunteers are welcome to participate in our yoga and meditation activities as well as learn to work as a meditation, with awareness and care for the nature and without the company of smartphones/internet.
A new complete experience for the majority and where you'll get out of your 'comfort zone'.
A place where you can practice how to heal the soil and your inner self !

Our project is not for profit, it has no economic goals. We are enjoying an active and creative life, growing as much as possible our own organic health food, using solar energy, and creating a little paradise where we can share with friends.
We have a large swimming pool, terraces, gardens where each of us can enjoy free time in a quiet space.
We are situated in the Algarve, between Lagoa *️️️️️) and Porches in a natural area.
Beautiful coast with many beaches nearby (4 km).
*️️️️️) Not to be confused with Lagos. We are not in a surfing place.

Volunteers live in an independent area with dormitory (or private rooms when available), shared bathrooms and living room with open kitchen. Washing machine. Pool and hammocks in the small pine field ... Meditation and Yoga guided by the hosts from Monday till Friday, or by the volunteers if they wish. We do not accommodate families with young children (under 16) or with pets. We'll send application form to interested volunteers and more info about our daily life when selected and invited.

My stay at Lombos Garden was mostly good it was a fair deal. The work was hard but after the working hours we could hang around the pool or go to the ocean so it was worth it. The only thing that botherd me during my stay was the big communication problems between Luisa and Pojari. They couldn’t agree on how we should do the tasks they had so different ideas about everything so we never knew for sure how to do the things properly. Because the disagreements and the pressure Luisa was always stressed and this stress most of the time landed on us which made the working hours way more harder.

LombosGarden was a great experience! The tasks in the garden are diverse and the 25h/week schedule is very fair. The hosts are supportive and helpful if any problems come up, and there’s a lot you can learn from them. The accommodation is great, and one thing future volunteers shouldn’t worry about is food — there’s always plenty. You’ll have free afternoons and weekends, plus there’s a pool on the property and the ocean isn’t far. I’d recommend this experience to anyone — it’s a safe, well-organized place and an amazing deal overall!

I’ve been to Lombos Gardens 4 times so far and I will be back. It’s beautiful and peaceful and the kind of hard work I enjoy. I swam in the pool every day to cool down and visited most of the local beaches several times.
Luisa and Purjari are like family to me and we’re very helpful when I needed it.
Thanks guys,
See you next year!

Louisa and Pjarry were two great hosts; being in their space was very rewarding for me. The goal is clear: it's a place to help change the planet. If you go with that intention, it's a great place for you! I'd definitely return to Lombos. Thank you!

Luisa and Pujari are really good people. I see the idea they have for their place. But at the moment there are a lot of unbalanced things which makes it harder to have the amazing experience you could. The place needs a change to make it attractive and fun again. So I truely hope that they can find a way to make that change happen.

Yes Ronja,
Property with renovation works in progress not allowing the hosts to be more present and your big expectation of a community instead of a meditation center didn't work out.
Wishing you the best for your community project.
