  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Volunteers will often have the opportunity to work with other members in our immediate cluster of homes. The tasks range from home and garden help to community events such as cooking. This is an excellent opportunity to see the co-operative in action and to experience a wider range of activity and people.
    Your home base is with us but food will be provided by your host for the day.

    We also love sharing travel stories, experiences of living in our intentional community and playing card games with other co-operative members. You are welcome to join.
