    Description

    We are two enthusiastic women working in our small farm and bamboo workshop. Our main project focuses on building and designing with the local bamboo specie. Also in our house surroundings there is plenty to do , like gardening maintenance, building fences, cooking meals, feeding our dog and cat, and enjoying life with us. We have a small craft beer factory and we cook once a week, so you will probably be helpful and learn the process of making beer.

    Volunteers will learn how to work with local bamboo. We have been working with bamboo for 20 years now and are happy to share our experience and knowledge.
    We live in a farm and we are new to gardening and growing our food, so in this area we will learn together and happy to learn from volunteers as well.
