Description
In the north of Germany (approx. 50 km east of Hamburg) we are transforming a 100.000 m2 former botanical research park into a center for experimental building, learning and living. We are organized as a cooperative with shared values such as "experimental living and working", "open source" and "appreciation for each other and for mother earth". You can come to Co-Be, Co-Live, Co-Work and Co-Create.
This summer we will have lots of different events around the topics of inner and outer transformation, IDGs and SDGs, conscious living, permaculture, tiny houses, mindfulness, nature, climate,... There will be the Pura Vida Festival, Create Convetion, Farm Food Climate Festival, ComYOUnity IDG Summer Camp, Team Retreats, On-Sites and lots of really cool and change oriented organizations visiting us.
As a volunteer you are very invited to take part in the events that happen here.... a nice goodie!
We are looking for volunteers who want to stay one week ore longer (the whole summer?) and spend 25h per week working with us to make a beautiful summer happen. We are looking for help in the kitchen, in the permaculture forest garden, in housekeeping, genereal infrastructure, building and hosting.
You will stay in your own tent or van OR we can provide you with a place to sleep in our crew area.
