Welcome everyone with our small team of people from Mexico & others from around the world like you, in this lower part of the mountain (altitude +350m),15min North of Tapachula. I am Florian, from Belgium, developing this non-profit project for humanity, I am in the area of Tapachula since 2018 and since 2019 serving in this wild area. Such an amazing human experience surrounded by nature and her elements, in this old coffee farm, with tropical fruits, river, animals & most importantly more freedom & peace 🙏🌱❤
As a non-profit organization, our main volunteer program is not 25 but a minimum of 15h/week (example : 5 days of +-3h & 2 days enjoy) to support our projects in exchange of a jungle rooftop dorm. Community food, partly organic & partly from market is available with a small cooperation, cooking & community tasks are managed together by shifts. Full (25h) volunteer program is available for people of low ressources, ask for it.

**SPECIAL CALL to people looking to join us for a long time (6-12months) or even stay living with us and develop projects for humankind (non-profit). People with deep love in those topics & leaders for projects :
> In ECO-buildings (we have 5 big plants of bambu)
> In Agriculture, there is +-7Ha of land to manage as a food forest, a small area for garden beds & herbal medicines for the community
> In well-being, such a large topic around therapies methods (yoga, meditations, breathwork, "ceremonies", healing with plants, water, sound, ...)
> Education with natural technics to develop a multi-level school for all
Located in the south border of Mexico with Guatemala and the pacific coast, a wonderful authentic area. The actual stay is in the main house, private rooms & bamboo cabins are available by cooperation/exchange, also you are welcome to camp around (more immersive). There are fruits trees pretty much everywhere with about 40% of coffee that we slowly convert to a more diverse food forest (sintropic agro-forestal system).
Everybody is also welcome as visitor in our ecohostal, as volunteer we prefer a minimum of 4 weeks to fully live & share the experience with nature & us. We can also share different kinds of adventures, to waterfalls, rivers, beach, mangroves, volcano, staying with local families, yoga, meditation, ... Also, we are connected to different local people & organizations around the area working with kids, migrants or simply languages classes (for few months stays).
You are also welcome to propose your own workshops or projects with our relations and us.
If everything is going well after several months, we are open for new members/residents.
