The experience

The volunteers that we might be interested in would have these characteristics: actually interested in growing food, self-sufficiency and alternative technologies. Don't mind about being isolated and in the middle of nowhere. Sociable and fun to be with.

We will be planting, growing and harvesting vegetables and preparing to be as self-sufficient as possible, are you ready to join us? :)

Note: If you don't mention the dates when you write to us it looks like you did not read the profile.

Last year we had some volunteers at Christmas. We did fairly hard work chipping olive branches. This would be for about 2 weeks but you have to be fit and strong.

You can request a longer period.
In theory longer stays of over a month are possible but only after a successful short stay.
Last year we had a wonderful Canadian girl who stayed for ages.
