Program Details

We’re seeking kind and open-hearted individuals to help us with our garden, orchards, and some house improvement projects. Support with our kids is also welcome!

We value sharing and connection—lunch and dinner are communal, while breakfast is self-serve to keep mornings calm with the kids.

We’ve built two vans and completed a permaculture course, so we can share woodworking skills and sustainable living tips. We look forward to learning from and growing with you!


Activities & Shift

We offer various accommodation options: a spacious 6m tent with beds and blankets, or a camper for more privacy. You'll have access to hot outdoor showers, solar-powered electricity, and remarkably fast Wi-Fi.

As food lovers, we embrace all cuisines—after all, we chose Italy! We eat everything and can adapt to your dietary needs. Breakfast is self-serve, while lunch and dinner are shared meals, often inspired by the culinary traditions you bring to the table.
