Description
We are a non profit organisation who take care of a yoga ashram near Sisteron in the Hautes Alpes region of southeastern France. It is a place of welcome inspired by the yogic lifestyle and especially Kundalini Yoga. The domain at an altitude of 750m, covers 8 hectares of which 5 hectares are meadows and 1 hectare of market gardening (including the vegetable garden, the orchard and small fruits). We are blessed with the Provencal climate, especially between the months of April and October to grow a maximum of vegetables and fruits on site. Workawayers would not be asked to help directly with any paying guests at our place.
