Description
We're Shakti (Thai) and William (British) and we are currently creating a creative garden/farm community in rural Chiang Mai-about 50 minutes outside of the Old City. We have a good start but we need help in the house and garden, which may include some lifting. We also need some creative painters to fill up all of the white space on the walls and to create a garden and basically just a community feel that welcomes folks from around the world to explore their inner creativity in a loving and communal spirit.
We provide all the meals. Don’t worry, you will have more food that you can eat. We eat Vegetarian at most of the times. Shakti eats meat and fish too.

*****IMPORTANT INFORMATION - please read!!******
May MOVING AND GARDEN
Right now, we need strong arms and backs to move our stuff from main house to the garden house. PLEASE remember that sometimes it includes lifting heavier items. We will be moving most of the stuff from the main house to the garden house.
After we finish that, we are going to move plants and furniture around the garden and a house. There are plenty of projects to do in the garden therefore we welcome people who enjoy working in the nature.
***DON’T WORRY You will be working alongside Thai workers on the bigger jobs and where haulage by truck is needed.
From June-July Garden and Art
After we finish moving we want to work on garden aesthetics. We need creative individuals to do DIY projects and develop new ideas on how to decorate garden space and houses, while using supplies we have around us, found items, discards to make ‘scraptures’.
We also need help with painting - art murals and mannequins, which I want to use as a decoration around garden.
We need help with Bamboo work, so manual skills are welcome. We also have sewing machines so somebody experienced with sewing is more than welcome!
Please mention what you can help us with in the message.
We ask you for at least 1-2 weeks notice before arrival. Also please tell us how long you like to stay with us .

Very welcoming, they did everything to make me feel good. I also ate very well as I rarely had the opportunity among all my encounters.
They have a very beautiful plot of land that has left me dreaming several times. It's full of potential and I'm happy the work we did during my little week with them.… read more

My stay is my first Workaway. Everything is new and fresh for me. I can’t speak English fluently though, They share their thoughts to be kind when I ask for some advice on my concerns. They taught me about Thai festivals, culture, and food to show me on YouTube. I could have a relaxing time without being too… read more
They performed well at the tasks given them and can work well on their own.
We enjoyed learning about Poland a country neither of us had visited. Anna made strawberry dumplings for supper which were a treat.
