The experience

Hello! I'm Lincy — born in Kerala, trained as an engineer, and passionate about travel, nature, and sustainable living.

I run a 6-acre farm in the peaceful village of Panagattiri, where we follow natural farming methods. Our land is filled with mango trees, coconuts, local herbs, and a few gentle cows 🐄.

We’re looking for kind, curious volunteers to help us make the farm even more vibrant and regenerative🌿
