The Experience

Este programa é uma forma de integrarmos pessoas em busca da transição para a sustentabilidade, não se trata de um curso, mas garantimos um aprendizado profundo através da solução de questões básicas do dia-a-dia que um “Sítio de Permacultura Familiar” e Ecovilas vivenciam. É uma imersão de 6 a 8 hrs p/dia/5 dias p/semana, para conhecer na prática este tipo de vida, ter uma mudança de cenário ou ter uma idéia do que é ter o seu próprio sítio!

It's an incredible and tranquil place with amazing hosts, you can learn all aspects of permaculture from the bioconstruction, gardening and even natural soaps. Though there's not really a dinner and sometimes not even a bread.

One of the best experiences I ever had!!! Wilson is amazing host, very friendly and caring. I was immersed to the permaculture right away, learned how to make composter, had chance to plant plants, learn about agroforestry and da little but of bio construction. I met amazing people at the eco village and had a chance to explore Rio De Janeiro and surrounding beach towns. Incredible and experience, highly recommended who wants to runaway from the noisy city life.

Since the first minute I put my foot in this beautiful project I was learning incredible things about agrofloresty, bio-consteuction and the local culture. In Wilson I found a caring teacher who treats the travelers as his own children. The space atracts incredible vibes comming from travelers arround the world. I won't forget this experience ever!
