Description
Hi guys I'm Carmine, after almost 10 years living between Spain and South America I came back to my beautiful village with the idea of recovering all the lands that for decades had been cultivated by my grandparents. I want to renovate some cabins that were used in the past as stables and build an ecolodge out of it. I'm also running together with my family a small production of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Wine, Saffron and basic organic farming. We're looking for motivated skillfull people that want to help us in these tasks: bioconstruction, farming, graphic design, art and music project. If you're looking for an authentic local experience in South Italy, then this is your place.

Help

I'm looking for voulnteers experienced in bioconstruction to help with fixing two old stables. I also look for graphic designer, artists and musicians to help making this place more beautiful. We need help too in the farming area, olive oil production, wine, saffron and vegetable farming. If you have skills in one of this area or if you're just motivated and want to help you're welcome!
