It's an amazing place with nice people! A great variety of food is produced sustainably and used by the kitchen on the same day to cook very delicious food. I enjoyed harvesting all kinds of fruits and vegetables as well as feeding fish, chicken and ducks. It is a rewarding task and you can see how things like a mushroom farm or an aquaponic system can actually work. For learning it from scratch you still would need to read up on it yourself. The food forest is still in the making. Since it's completely integrated in the whole local community it's a great project and 100% worth supporting.

Volunteering at the community was an unforgettable experience From the very first moment, we were welcomed into a warm, inspiring, and supportive community that truly feels like family. The place itself is stunning — surrounded by lush nature, peaceful vibes, and beautiful spaces that invite you to slow down and connect. There's always something to do. The staff were amazing — kind, passionate, and full of positive energy. The food was absolutely delicious! If you're considering volunteering in the community, the community is more than worth it!

Volunteering at the community was truly one of the highlights of our trip through South the community. From the moment we arrived, we felt like part of a warm and inspiring community. We helped out with gardening, and other related tasks around the campus, always learning something new. The staff and volunteers were amazing, the food was delicious (fresh, organic, and so tasty), and the surroundings were peaceful and beautiful. We also enjoyed daily yoga classes, which made the experience even more special!

This was my first volunteer experience, and it was incredible. At the beg I was a little overwhelmed by being immersed in the jungle, but after a few days, the place and its people captivate me to the point of not wanting to leave. Seeing so much nature around you, so much tranquility, it exudes a sense of peace. I was also lucky enough to meet other incredible volunteers from all over the world. Ingrid (Peekoy), Mod, Ai, Ton, and the rest of the staff made me feel at home from day one. It will be very difficult for me to leave this place, but the good thing is that you can come back always.
