Hi all nature lovers <3 <3 <3
You are welcomed to join us to help, learn, be inspired, inspire , and re-connect in our organic farm located in the canter of Israel.
We are young people created a unique sustainability canter in our organic beautiful farm with the vision of a Rehabilitation farm. We believe that working and creating, or even just being, with nature is heart opening, healing and helps us go through important processes.
After 8 years of building the farm on my fathers land, our very special piece of earth it is now now also a platform which allows people to re-connect , create and develop throw earth, through personal connections and forming connections with activists and dreamers who have the calling to benefit the land and creating a wide community of people who take care of nature spread knowledge and walk the earth way and skills, while also developing emotionally.
In these years we took care of re building the soil supporting the natural local ecosystem and making the farm a productive life-full blossoming land - we were growing heirloom vegetables from seed to seed (small scale) for top chefs in TLV, take care of saving and spreading heirloom seeds and growing amazing edible Mushrooms.
To support it all, we were teaching our knowledge regarding Permaculture and Ecological lifestyle and hosted other workshops in our beautiful natural builded space to share their knowledge.
We are now in a big change in the farms life sprouting from three different but connected processes:
- The complexed situation in israel (and surrounding) that is floating a lot of emotional pain and personal and collective trauma brings the deep need for healing centers and safe spaces to be supported in (which we believe nature does best)
- The calling of the land itself to become a bigger project (not only based on one woman's dream) and becoming a collective and a much wider net who holds and helps the vision grow
- The personal need of Yael , the owner of the farm, to leave on to her next journey in life , freeing her spot, and her self, to the most accurate new parents of the farm .
All of these brings us now to a big time of change: in the next 2 months we will be focusing our energy in unfolding many years and cleaning up "unneeded leftovers" which are not needed anymore so the farm can go to the next step lightly.
We would be happy for more people joining us for a period of 3 weeks up to 2 month ( between March 25th to May 25th). In this time you will be helping out in general maintenance of the annual plants , taking care of the space for workshops , and cleaning and organising a lot of equipment (and energy) accumulated in the past years in the carpentry, kitchen and agriculture area .
There are very nice shared spaces we all hang in together , and sleeping is in a tent.
The work is only 15 h a week, and sleeping is in a tent in a nice shaded area (we have mattresses , sheets and all).
We buy products for meals together (basic vegetarian) and share the costs
(The alternative if you prefer will be working 25 h a week and do have food costs included by us)
The farm is secluded and wild :) its a place full of inspiration and good energy , intimate and calm atmosphere. and also full of wildlife , animals ( such as snakes and humans:) . It is located in the middle of a beautiful reserved park - 'Hasharon' park (40 min norther from Tel Aviv, easy to reach by train or bus from all parts of the country ) The farm is right on the 'Israel National Trail' that crosses all of Israel and in from of our gate . It is 2 km from the beach (air distance).
If you feel inspired from the processes we and this beautiful land go through are feeling the call to join us to the creation and being a part of the developing community , learning together and sharing moments and forming a new balanced health souls and soil - you are welcomed to contact us . After years of hosting Workaways we are positive that the most accurate people arrive to this land , always for a reason and for a very meaningful part of they're journey .
MUCH LOVE
<3

We usually prefer volunteers for about 3 weeks period MINIMUM (as it takes at least a few days to adapt to a new place and energy therefore a real deep process is starting only after)

Accommodation
*A very nice and comfortable room for volunteers - occupied by the first ones to come
* Many shaded breeze areas to set your tent under a tree in your favourite spot for extra privacy (we will give you a mattress and sheets ) - highly recommended (accept from November to February)
What else ...
Just stepping outside there is a beautiful endless park. 15 min drive from the beach, and 40 min walk from the wilderness to Alexander river . It is very close to the train station so basically everything is close. many Young cool people are living in this area. You should know the farm is quite secluded, but you'll probably meet so beautiful people and friend here and find here everything you need:)
We accept workawayers for approximately minimum of 3 weeks but can be flexible , mostly longer periods, or a bit shorter and as long as theres a good connection and need you could stay with us for as much as it fits all . Volunteering in the farm is abled as a tourist with a normal tourist visa. Also any other legal approval to stay in Israel will do. In order to be able to host you once you arrive we will need to ask you for a copy of your valid tourist visa and health insurance.
