The residency is a space to receive volunteers from all over the world who are interested in a day to day life on an ecological farm. For all that feel the pull to integrate with this lifestyle will have the opportunity to learn, with hands on experience, varied techniques of cultivation and land management along with reaping the fruits of a daily rural setting oriented by then principles of permaculture, agroforestry and bioconstruction.
Beyond experiencing our style of flowing with the land, our volunteers are more than welcome to share their own experiences and practices in the form of workshops or other activities that will bring positive growth to the collective residents and fellow volunteers.
Here we seek to stimulate a deep relation between people, uniting our living space, preparing our meals together, serving all functions necessary to maintain the relation between human and natural life in harmony on a farm environment and of coarse to relax and enjoy. Be ready for the unexpected.
The minimum stay for the residency program is 3 weeks (21 days), realizing that this is the time needed to really integrate into the space and routine, allowing for the volunteer to grow and adapt into a strong autonomy of his/her role to the whole.
Seeing that we are still progressing and we are not self sufficient yet, we ask the residents a contribution of 15 reais to acount for the costs for that which we do not produce, for example certain food, materials shared, and electric energy.
