    Description

    Namaste
    We are a FarmStay nestled amongst fields and the under the shadows of the beautiful Aravalli hills, the closest hill track is a 800 mtr walk.
    Less than 50 kms from Jaipur, 275 kms from New Delhi.
    An Indian Village, a natural farm, clean, healthy food, fresh air to breathe and stars to gaze at night, near off-grid home, you'd love it here. And we would love to host you.
    You are welcome to bring in your dogs, we love animals.
    I come from a family of entrepreneurs, been working since i was 17. Now want to settle in the village with clean air and food which, i believe, will add life to my years and years to my life.
    I am married. I have 2 boys. The elder one is just starting up with his own brand of premium travel accessories from sustainable materials, the younger one is in 2nd year college. My wife is a home maker nad also doubles up as the sharp eye.
    I hope to be living on the farm permanently soon.
    We are educated, cultured, easy going, friendly and light hearted people. Open minded, love conversations and exchange of views and ideas. Our other interests are reading, travelling, music (our on-site amateur music studio will be ready after all other operations are streamlined and we can dedicate time to that)
    We have incorporated different farming practices, contemporary and traditional ones, using only natural processes and inputs. We hope to make it completely integrated and self-sustaining in the next few years.
    Most structures and elements are built using discards or low impact materials wherever possible. A natural farm pond for rainwater harvesting adds to the aesthetics as well.
    The dwellings are sufficiently sized with attached bath. Our farmhand and family lives in one room, 2 other rooms will be provided to volunteers and i live in one of them on my visits. As this place functions as a farm stay, 4 separate family suites are built with all creature comforts.
    More info is on our YT channel and other social media platforms, which will be shared once discussions begin

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Life here is slow, earthy, and real. You’ll get to experience rural Rajasthan up close—working on a natural farm, helping around the retreat, and hanging out with locals who live and breathe the land.

    You’ll learn how we grow food without chemicals, make soap from aloe vera, cook simple veg meals, and host people who come here looking to disconnect. There’s a lot of sharing—stories, music, food, ideas—and we’re always up for trying new things if you bring your own skills or energy.

    Expect a mix of peaceful farm work, hands-on experiences, and lots of chai breaks under the neem tree.

  • Help

    Help

    While many volunteers join us for hands-on farm work—like mulching, planting, composting, or cow care—we also welcome help with retreat-related responsibilities. This includes:

    Welcoming guests and helping with meal-time coordination or service
    Setting up for bonfire evenings, workshops, or day activities
    Assisting with basic housekeeping tasks or prepping guest kits
    Supporting our social media and content needs — if you're into photography, reels, short-form storytelling, or Canva design
    Occasionally joining us for nature walks or rural excursions if guests are involved

    We encourage volunteers to explore both the natural side and its evolving space as a nature retreat. You'll live alongside a mix of resident team members, guests, and sometimes other volunteers—always with plenty of fresh food, fresh air, and quiet corners to reflect.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Volunteers stay in a simple twin-sharing room with an attached toilet and bath.
    We provide Indian home-style vegetarian meals, often made with fresh produce from our farm.

    There’s Wi-Fi access and regular electricity, though occasional power cuts can happen since we’re in a rural setting.
    The volunteer room does not have air-conditioning, and we do not serve non-vegetarian food at all.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Volunteering here doesn't have a rigid schedule, but it’s also not a holiday. We ask for about 4–5 hours of help a day, with breaks for meals and rest. You’ll have space to work at your own pace, but time discipline is important—it helps us stay on track, especially since our farm team begins early and juggles guest meals too.

    We usually begin after breakfast (which needs to finish by 9 AM) so that most outdoor work can be done before the sun gets too strong. We resume in the late afternoon around 4 PM, once it cools down again.

    What we expect from you:

    Be punctual, respectful of the farm's flow, and ready to pitch in with sincerity.
    Dress comfortably for farm or retreat work (think sun, soil, stairs, and lots of walking).
    No non-vegetarian food is allowed on the farm, and only vegetarian meals are served.

    In your free time, you’re welcome to:

    Hike up to nearby hills (less than 1 km away) with our team
    Stargaze on clear nights – the skies are usually spectacular
    Visit local villages and meet farmers or artisans (preferably accompanied by a team member)
    Read, rest, sketch, or journal — we’ve got plenty of quiet corners

    We are 50 km from Jaipur city, so there's no nightlife or urban distractions. It’s just the farm, the hills, the trees, the animals—and you. We like to be upfront about this, because that simplicity is also what makes the experience meaningful.

    We are deeply rooted in this land and community. So while we encourage exploration, we also request that volunteers respect the rural setting and the trust of our neighbours. You’re not just staying here—you’re becoming part of something that’s growing, quietly but purposefully.
