  Description

  The greatest experience is the exchange of experiences!
  I volunteered for about 30 months from Rio Grande do Sul to the Amazonas (Brazilian Coast). Now, I opened a place called. It's not a farm or a hostel but something between them.
  We have plenty of fruits that need to be harvested daily and we also need some help in social media. Currently, we don't have any kind of part workshops but we can organize them together :)
  It's important to note that we are a family-run business where the owners are part of the day-to-day running of the place. We seek to share experiences with creative people who can both enjoy and contribute to the space.
  It is located less than 20 kilometers from Ribeirão Preto. The site has a wide variety of trees, many of them fruit trees such as Acerola, Lemon, Orange, Pitanga, Pitaia, Nectarine, Fig, Carambola, Lettuce, Rucola, Papaya, Mango, Avocado and Banana. There is also a swimming pool, a hammock, a campsite, and ample space to grow plants and ideas.
  The site has a simple but complete infrastructure. It has high-speed satellite internet, a dedicated workspace, an electric shower, and comfortable and clean accommodations. It is a great option for digital nomads who want to work in contact with nature.
  Here's a list of the activities we do here:
  - Planting, cultivating and harvesting
  - Composting
  - Food processing
  - Bioconstruction
  - Contact with animals
  - Sustainable activities
  We hope all volunteers have happy experiences that transform how they see life and can contribute to our space, improving it even more.
  We cook and eat food together. If you have any special diet, let us know to arrange it, and try to give you what you want :). We usually have three meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
  Our doors are open with positive energy and a lot of affection.

  Let's grow together!

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Some experiences that people love here are: hearing the singing of the various birds, the walks through the cane fields, collecting chicken eggs, picking manioc, lemons, peppers, eggplants, and okra.
  We have a very family-oriented vibe, we aim to promote the connection between the volunteers, planning breakfast, dinner, and movie night together.
  One of the people who visited here said:
  “An oasis in the middle of the sugarcane fields. A serious job that has been decades in the making, in the process of harvesting a lot of planted love.”
  People that come here feel welcome and part of the family.
  We are open to everyone looking for peace and tranquility
