Program Details

Participate in the world of the farm in the spirit of permaculture, that is to say, respect and provide more than take. Help in the ecological projects of the farm, Eco construction Gardening and taking care of a vegetable garden. Agroforestry according to the principles of permaculture participates in the world of the farm in the spirit of permaculture. If you have skills or simply a desire to participate and learn.
I am someone who seeks to integrate both the wilderness of life with some of the luxuries and benefits of the modern times we live in, in a mindful, expansive, respectful and loving way. My goal is to create and co-create wherever I go, to learn and transmit, to inspire and be inspired, to empower myself and let myself be touched by the great diversity that exists around me and use it to bring “the best” into this world to serve us as a collective.

Activities & Shift

You need to have your own health and accident insurance and be in good health and physical condition as farm life is very sporty. If you are a lymphatic person of the type “who has trouble emerging in the morning and who is tired all day…” this will not be the right place or a good hideout for you because this land requires motivated people with the love of work for her, for the trees, for the plants 🙂

Rules

The mission is to participate in the turning point of humanity by preparing the world of tomorrow according to the principles of permaculture on the farm that has chosen me to renovate it, to wake it up from the long years of abandonment and to make it an oasis of happiness, fertility, abundance, sharing, and love of the living.
