    🌿 Explore Sustainable Farming with Us 🌿

    Looking for a meaningful, hands-on learning experience? We’re especially interested in hosting individuals who can join us for two months or more, though we’re flexible — if our project resonates with you, please feel free to reach out.

    Who We Are

    This is more than a farm — we are a living classroom nestled in the cloud-forest foothills near Cali, Colombia. Our space blends sustainability, creativity, and community, offering a unique environment for immersive learning and personal growth.

    What You’ll Experience

    ✨ Connection with Nature: Enjoy peaceful surroundings filled with birdsong, fresh air, and mountain views.
    ✨ Community Living: Share the experience with like-minded learners and travelers from around the world.
    ✨ Nutritious Food & Comfortable Housing: Enjoy homegrown, mostly vegetarian meals and cozy shared accommodations.

    Your Commitment

    A stay of two months or longer allows you to fully immerse yourself in the rhythms of farm life and make the most of what we offer. Contact us for more details about work schedules and expectations. Financial contributions are optional but greatly appreciated, as they help us continue providing this learning opportunity.

    Come learn, work, and grow with us — and leave empowered to cultivate positive change wherever life takes you. 🌎

    Kino has spent more time at the farm than any of us humans. He's quite old and requires a fair amount of care, but he's very sweet.
