Program Details

As a volunteer, you will help us care for our biodynamic vegetable garden and other green areas of the project. We offer food and accommodation in exchange for about 25 hours of help per week (5 hours/day, 5 days/week). We value respect, collaboration, and honest communication. We’ll work together on some tasks, and others may be done independently, depending on your comfort and experience.

Activities & Shift

Our garden is one of the hearts of our project. It nourishes us — and also the children and families who are part of our educational community.

We follow biodynamic and regenerative principles, working in harmony with the land and the seasons. You’ll be helping us in the daily care of the garden and surrounding plants.

This includes:

Planting seeds and transplanting seedlings

Watering trees, vegetables, and flowers in the evening

Harvesting vegetables in the morning

Managing the basic irrigation system

Propagating plants by cuttings

Maintaining paths and compost


We love being in the garden ourselves — it’s a space of peace and presence. Most tasks will be done together, but we also appreciate your ability to work with autonomy when needed.

Shifts

You’ll help about 5 hours per day, mostly in the early morning and/or late afternoon, depending on the weather and the needs of the plants.

Example schedule:

🌄 8:00–11:00: harvesting, planting, maintenance

🌞 Free time during the hot hours (lunch, siesta, beach, reading…)

🌅 18:00–20:00: watering trees and flowers, checking irrigation system


You’ll have two free days per week, flexible depending on weather and shared rhythm.

Rules


Treat the garden and plants with care

Keep shared spaces clean and tools tidy after use

No smoking in or near garden/children’s areas

We live simply: no fridge, compost toilet, and a lot of open air

Be open to share, help when needed, and respect the rhythm of family life

Ask when in doubt, and enjoy the beauty of the process 🌱
