Program Details

Volunteers become part of our daily farm life, supporting ecological initiatives and participating in activities that promote sustainability and environmental education. You’ll learn about native stingless bees (meliponiculture), agroforestry systems, organic gardening, and community-based ecological awareness. There is also the opportunity to take photos and videos for social media if that is something that interests you.

We offer guidance for each activity, and you are welcome to share your own skills or interests. This is a collaborative, nature-centered environment where learning flows both ways.

You’ll stay close to nature, enjoy peaceful surroundings, and connect with our team of biologists, farmers, and community members who care deeply about environmental preservation.
