Program Details

WORK: We don't have a minimum hours of help but on average, volunteers do 1-3 hours a day. For example, in the morning you can help 1-2 hours, then continue in the afternoon and choose when to take a rest, go for a walk/bicycle ride or do some handcrafts, read, whatever you want.



COURSES:
We sometimes have guests staying at the farm to do courses. We also host a permaculture farming course (5 days) if there’s enough interest.

INTERNET:
We do not provide internet but there is a good access via mobile.

GETTING THERE: If you come from Chiang Mai, the easiest is to take a bus in the direction of Phayao with Greenbus company. There is a stop about 10 km before Phayao, which is close to the farm and we can pick you up there.
If you come from Chiang Rai or Bangkok and arrive to the central bus terminal, you can take a scooter taxi. The price will be around 200 bhat. Please only use the phone number given for calling me when you arrive.

WASTE MANAGEMENT: We would like the volunteers to be conscious and responsible for their own plastic, bottles and trash because there is no recycling system around here. We appreciate if you can collect your non-biodegradable waste during the stay and take it with when you leave.
