Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Our location provides the perfect opportunity to learn about the local village life in the Southern plains of Nepal. If you are especially interested in wildlife, being with us is a great way to come across various animals and birds as we are right next to the National Park. At the same time, we are working with people from Tharu community, the indigenous community of Chitwan so it will be a wonderful chance to learn about their culture, food, and practices.
Help
We mostly require help with our farm. We practice permaculture philosophy not only in our farming techniques but also in our everyday life. We also aim to organize retreats and residential workshops on wellness, creativity, and the outdoors. So anyone who has expertise in that is also welcome while helping us with taking care of the space. Finally, since we are still building the space, we will be grateful to people interested in natural and green building methods.

During the time off, the volunteers can go visit Sauraha, a tourist hub in Chitwan. There are few museums, cafes and cultural centers there. They can also go for Safaris in the National Park.
