    Description

    Beautiful Souls,
    We (wild patchwork family with 4 kids) are looking for loving volunteers (all genders) to help on our land.
    We live in very simple conditions on 11 ha of land and are just starting a community/social project near Santa Clara (in the south)

    🌻 , cleaning the house, building a compost toilet and a outdoor kitchen, bathroom, prepare a garden and a lot more :D skills in any ways are more than welcome

    🕉 we love to do some yoga together or have singing circles around the fireplace. Or also if you want to hold space for some special heart things.

    We will pay for the food completely.

    🕰 The times should be according to the needs of all and fun is absolutely in the focus so that it does not feel like "work" for you. But around 5 h/ day would be perfect. Animals are also welcome. We have already 3 dogs who are permantly living here and sometimes 2 more visiting.


    🧡 greetings from a warm heart
