  Beschreibung

  We are a French couple living in South Africa for 23 years. We love nature and have an off-grid eco farm. We want to give back to Mother Earth and be as in tune with her as much as possible. We also harvest medicinal plants, aromatic plants, veggies and fruits and process all that differently, creating our tinctures, spices, preserves, etc.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Our farm offers a space to learn permaculture and how its growing principles intertwine with the different systems of nature such as soil preparation and health, planting techniques, irrigation, and animal care. There is always something to learn and explore like fencing, land management, grazing and beekeeping. Additionally, you can learn about gardening, fruit trees, cooking, and preserving. Discover how to look and care for alpacas, donkeys, cows, geese and chickens.

  Arbeit

  We are an off-grid, eco-friendly farm using permaculture principles. We have Alpacas, cows, donkeys, horses, geese & chickens. We need help and support to care for the orchard and veggie garden. We want to open trails in the indigenous forest and we are always working on new projects.
  
  We want serious volunteers, who are ready to work. The type of work depends on the season, what needs to be done and the volunteer skills and interests.
  
  The type of work a volunteer can expect involves maintenance, weeding, composting, gardening, responsibility for land and animals, planting, irrigation systems, and woodwork.
  
  A few of our expectations:
  Have a strong sense of responsibility
  Volunteer to take their job seriously
  Treat people with respect and respect the land and animals
  Start at the agreed time and be flexible throughout the day
