Program Details

Be part of creative team and turning ideas and dreams into reality!

In the past we have build a tiny house, a huge heart shaped labyrinth, carved wooden sculptures, build a tree house viewing platform and created a chicken enclosure. There are few things that simply need some maintain and other things that we are yet to build.

You will get a chance to look after a big garden as well as planting and harvesting your own food in the green house and patches of potatoes/ onions / pumpkins and the like. We are very big on growing our Forrest garden. This year we want to add a lot more flowers. There is also a big Permakultur community in our village.
