The Experience

We've had great experiences with volunteers with some returning again and again. We have a variety of projects for you from restoring historic buildings to gardening, room cleaning, fruit tree care, landscaping, organizing to painting. We're restoring this historic site as an eco-retreat center and small inn. We look forward to sharing plant-based foods and sustainability practices.

Corina & Ryan are great hosts. They care about your wellbeing and opinion. The property is magical and next to work you have plenty of time to enjoy the island. I felt like a valued member of the FLI community. I highly recommend if you'd like to improve your mechanical skills while being in paradise. It's definitely a home away from home :)

I am happy to have spent two months on the beautiful property of Corina and Ryan. They are two wonderful and lovely people, who care about the environment, the community and the volunteers themselves. They make you a part of their life, and they are there beyond the working hours. Working hours were always respected and I never had any problems about it. Always available for anything, they made my first experience as a volunteer easier. Thank you for everything and see you soon!

The Center is such a beautiful place to visit. No matter where you look, the views are stunning. I helped worked on social media so my tasks were pretty easy compared to others. Corina is the smartest, sweetest and coolest host! She's truly passionate about her work. I would def recommend!

I had an Amazing time working at the Center. The property is absolutely beautiful with stunning views and is very relaxing. There is plenty of work that needs to be done depending on what you get assigned some work can be a bit difficult. There was some times I felt work may have exceeded the 5 hours. You do get done in the early afternoon so you have most of the afternoon and all evening to do whatever you like! All and all with everything that is offered and the amazing people that come along with this experience I highly recommend this opportunity!
