Help us to develop our permaculture essential oil cultivation.
The experience
We are a permaculture project focused on cultivating essential plants such as oil rose, rosemary, lavender, geraniums, and Manuka. We also reforest our fields with trees and cultivate annual or biennial medicinal herbs.
We are currently expanding our project and have had very positive experiences with volunteers.
Volunteers help us in all areas of daily life, including taking cuttings, planting, harvesting, and self-sufficiency.
