We are looking for adventurous volunteers who are interested in learning permaculture farming through hands-on participation. We've developed over a hectare and a half of agroforestry systems in which we are growing special, organic coffee alongside a variety of native and other beneficial plants. The benefits of agroforestry extend from increasing economic output, restoring degraded land, capturing carbon, and providing habitat for endangered animals.
Our volunteer program consists of three days of hands-on work in agroforestry. one day for workshops and one day for adventure tours. We are situated in a great area for those who like hiking and mountain biking. To learn more about the schedule accomodation, and associated costs please visit our website:
How it increases happiness
Coffee is one of the best ways to increase happiness and so is connecting we nature. We believe our society will be happier when we learn to respect nature and work with it rather than against it to meet the needs of our community.
