  Description

  Our permaculture project is in the heart of a small village in the South of Granada. We are offering a cultural exchange and would like volunteers to join us on our plot in paradise to take part and learn of our lifestyle. Much of which involves harvest and farm maintenance. Our plantation contains almonds, olives, avocado and oranges trees. We also make wine and permaculture to make use of all of the land available. Additional daily activities include household, and there are always plenty of stuff to do, so you will always keep interested. We hope to see you soon!

  What's this?
• 

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  They will learn how to be self sufficient and learn tips on permaculture which can be applied anywhere in the world. Sorvilán is a community which is built on farming with a wide variety of fruits, nuts and vegetables in the neighbouring safe and beautiful mountain sides to do hiking in spare time.
  You will be staying in a stunning part of the world as you are living in the mountains with ocean views. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to break away from technology and reconnect with nature.

  What else ...

  Sorvilán is fairly secluded - a 3 hour bus journey to Granada. Those with vehicles have easy access to explore the mountains, visit neighbouring villages and head to the beach. Those without vehicles shouldn't be put off as Sorvilán hosts a very welcoming community and it will be easy to meet likeminded people who are eager to explore with you.
