The Experience

Inspired by permaculture design and syntropic agroforestry, the main goal is to develop perennial food production systems here that generate abundance. I could use help with planting, harvesting, pruning, propagation, building, marketing, etc. The work and schedule can be flexible. Volunteers can eat food we grow. Most trees are young, but some bear fruit. The local bus takes 30 minutes to get to town or to the beach.

I had the best time, a home away from home. I learnt a lot over the month and Joe was super welcoming, definitely could have stayed for longer. Highly recommend it to anyone interested! Thanks again Joe ☺️

Joe is an amazing host who welcomes you in his home :) The accommodation is simple, but still I felt welcomed and was in good hands. It is a perfect experience for those who want to find a quiet place to connect with nature while learning about planting! It is easy to explore the surrounding and get into town with bus :)
