    Description

    We are taking volunteers ! Those keen to learn, share, participate in the exciting Permaculture and eco-Tourism projects we have unleashed on the mountains, may now apply.
    Everyone is welcome (including Delhi folks). However you should believe in sustainable living. For those applying for the farm should love farm animals (including the roosters who are bound to rudely wake you in the morning). We Play Music ( Musician anyone? ). We make Cakes and of course serve food including Pizzas.
    One should come for 7 days minimum, and can extend ones stay, after getting ones bearings.
    On the Farm we can accommodate a maximum of two people, so preference will be given to those who have some farming experience.
    No classroom lectures on farming, but opportunity to learn first hand , how to grow vegetables organically, plant fruit trees and make compost and lots and lots of farming mistakes under the amateur guidance of yours truly.
