The Experience
"Permaculture course" You should not expect a class but an integration into village life. For those interested in learning about the village lifestyle we offer this experience to those who are not interested in the life of an explorer or tourist but In the village we have same jobs like turning the compost where many people are needed to make it a game and not a chore. In a month, a few hours of work same time are enough for help with a group.

I had an amazing experience at the project & I highly recommend this for anyone looking to connect with nature & learn about permaculture. The village is an absolutely beautiful place & it was great to stay in your own private hut. The work is fun & relaxed but it does get very hot. There is plenty of time to explore the nearby area & discover amazing nature. Lele is a great host & is very accommodating to any needs

Honestly best thing I have ever done. This was my first time volunteering and everything about this experience exceeded my expectations. The people I volunteered with were very welcoming. The work was very rewarding and not that demanding. There was a perfect balance between work and fun.

My time in the project was phenomenal and I had lots of fun building and doing gardening. Lele is a very funny guy, with a lot of stories to tell and a big passion for Permaculture. His dream to build a community in the middle of nowhere and try to reduce/eliminate consumerism is quite inspiring and interesting. I would definitely go back one day. The people I met there were AMAZING and I will miss a lot the dogs :( Thanks for everything!

Absolutely loved the experience, met loads of amazing people and learned so much. Accomodation is in huts that were built by other volunteers and they can get pretty hot which takes a while to get used to but are fairly comfy overall. Food was also really good but a lot of spices which I wasn't really used to but still enjoyed it. Would highly recommend the project to anyone wanting a social experience where you can see the impact your work has.
