Description
My name is Mary, and I’m here to welcome and connect volunteers to our beautiful finca in the jungle of Costa Rica, about one and a half hours away from Santa Teresa.
We are creating a space for people who want to slow down, reconnect with nature, and take a break from constant phone use.
Beyond being a digital detox retreat, our vision is to build a conscious, international community based on respect, cooperation, and simple living.
If you feel called to be part of a growing project and help bring this vision come to life, we would love to meet you.
Let’s create a place for the New Earth. 🩵
We would love to host people for six weeks. ☺️ But if you can‘t stay so long and still feel a huge calling, let me know!
We currently employ six local staff members, who have been working with us for several years.
They are responsible for the maintenance and care of the land and facilities, including gardening, general upkeep, and ensuring that everything on the finca runs smoothly.
They are an essential part of our project and contribute greatly to the continuity and well-being of the place.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
At our finca, cultural exchange happens naturally through daily life.
We share meals, stories, skills, and perspectives from different cultures while living and working together in nature.
Volunteers are invited to experience a slower, more conscious way of life, learn about sustainable living in the Costa Rican jungle, and share their own traditions, ideas, and talents with the community.
Through collaboration, creativity, and open communication, we create a space of mutual learning and respect.
We also have a beautiful sauna next to three huge waterfalls that can be used. 🥰
Help
We welcome creative people who enjoy greenhouse and garden work, simple wood projects, building, helping in the kitchen, and contributing ideas to shape and beautify the place.
If you like co-creating, working hands-on, and being part of an evolving project, you will feel at home here.

Accommodation
At the moment, we are still in the process of building the volunteer accommodations.
For now, volunteers stay in the cabinas that are also used for guests.
We recommend bringing your own sleeping bag. Once a week, a local food truck stops nearby, offering fresh fruits and vegetables and the option to order food. In addition, someone regularly goes to town to buy other groceries. Meals can be prepared and enjoyed together, creating a shared and cozy atmosphere, or you’re welcome to cook on your own, depending on your wishes and needs. 🩵
What else ...
We will pick you up in Santa Teresa or Cóbano to get to our place. 😊
