Rules

Food stuffs,

We have usually abundant bananas, papayas and some citrus year round. Other fruits like jackfruit, marang, starfruit, rollinia, peanut butter fruit, soursop, ice cream beans etc which come and go seasonally, and various roots for cooking when it's harvest time. We do not have enough food producing to feed everyone. Supplemental food can be bought at the market. Whole fruit and vegan food is the only food we allow.


Sleeping info,

We have spare rooms and beds, but not always spare bedding to borrow so you may like to plan on either bringing bedding and buying sheets and a blanket or two in town for your use. If we don't have any spare volunteer bedding, we also have some bedding put aside for rent (this is the nicer bedding that we use for events), it's $5 / week or $15 / month.
