Program Details

We host up to 9 volunteers on site at anyone time. It is a very new project so we are all learning and growing together.

Activities & Shift

There are no set shifts, it is working in the garden so it depends what needs doing at any one time. We are not clock watching, we expect our volunteers to be here because they are interested in the project and we offer them the respect to manage their own time. When we have events it is all hands on deck and we will have set shifts to make sure everything is being done.

Rules

Follow and respect the systems that we have in place. Help out around the house and be flexible when we have events. Full rules will be provided before your arrive.
