The Experience

We are a young family living in the pristine Robson Valley, with a mission to help individuals reconnect with their true selves through immersive nature experiences, all centred around our Family Permaculture Homestead. At the moment, our focus is on building essential infrastructure to welcome visitors. We're seeking the right person to assist us with the construction process, childcare, and helping with growing, cooking, and preserving food.

Spending time at Rootsthe project has truly been one of the best experiences of my life if not the best. Dunster is such a magical place, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes that make every day feel special. Working with Yann and Kat was always fun, they're two amazing humans with a beautiful family, and they taught me so much about life and their unique way of living. I really fell in love with this place! I would highly recommend this volunteering experience to anyone who wants to connect with nature and meet wonderful, inspiring people along the way.
