    Description

    We moved to our land about 7 years ago near the forest mountains, 35 km east of Chiang Mai city. Having lived in the city but traveled a lot, we are now settling down more and try to grow our own food, medicinal plants, building wooden and bamboo houses, filtering our own water, composting and recycling almost all of our waste.

    If you're interested in wooden building, organic farming, cooking, and yoga, you're welcome to stay with us. There are private wooden rooms for our volunteers. Our place is also close to San Kamphaeng Hot Spring, Muang On cave, Crazy Horse rock climbing, etc.
    Our comfortable wooden rooms ( mostly private rooms), yoga classes, limitless wifi, laundry, 2 bicycles, water and fresh coffees are ready for our volunteers.

    As we are not able to grow enough food at times and need to share the costs of shopping with workawayers, you are welcome to contribute towards food costs or buy your own food, if you can.

    Our target is to be totally self sufficient in our small farm about food, water, shelter, medicine, energy etc.. We are not a commercial farm so we are not growing large scale vegetables and fruits to sell outside for money. So we and our volunteers have lots of free time. A couple of hours help is enough for us. We go rock climbing 2 days a week and hike to the mountain once a week. Volunteers are always welcome to join us for these epic outdoor activities.
    We have minimum stay of 7 nights so we can get to know each other and have some stability.

    And besides the all work, we enjoy our time with sharing our knowledge and experience with volunteers together. Take this place not like a hard working mono-culture farm but a little learning center with harmony in nature and with self sufficiency and love. We believe, for a better planet, a more real life, and a free & independent future, all of us should start to act and learn.
