Help work on permaculture and eco-technologies at our educational farm in Maule, Chile

  Description

  We have an educational park developed based on permaculture and welcomes serious, responsible, and hardworking volunteers. It's located in the Maule region of Chile. Here you can learn about and work with permaculture and ecotechnologies. We are self-sufficient in several areas: energy, water, and some fruits and vegetables. Anyone who wants to work and learn permaculture is welcome. We primarily welcome volunteers who want to apply permaculture to their lives, and even better, to their communities. We are therefore training leaders in these areas.
  
  In the case of our Host, we teach two basic aspects: Learning to Read the Landscape and Learning to Feel Silence. These two basic aspects of being human are not easy to learn overnight. Our style is based on the techniques of Fukuoka and many other permaculture Masters. We have been practicing biodynamic agriculture since 2024, and we are pleased with the results. The assignments are varied and interesting, and we engage in a lot of dialogue (this is one of the principles learned from author Humberto Maturana). The specific assignments are agreed upon with the volunteers; nothing is mandatory; everything we teach makes sense. What we provide to volunteers is of high quality in every sense. The Park is not an ordinary place, so we require adaptation to new things. Any volunteer who wants to learn and collaborate in a small Park is welcome. We only accept one volunteer at a time due to the high costs of its maintenance. This year, 2025, has been fabulous for personal learning, and as a Park, we are forging several alliances with teams and institutions to promote all this knowledge, particularly in the educational and agricultural worlds. One of the aspects I am teaching is how your personal development and ideas are shaped in your creative space. Therefore, I am confident in a beautiful future for our humanity.

  Tenemos un parque educativo desarrollado en base a la permacultura y recibimos voluntarios serios, responsables y trabajadores. Está ubicado en la región del Maule, Chile. Acá podrán conocer y trabajar en permacultura y ecotecnologías. Nos autoabastecemos en varios aspectos: energía, agua, algunas frutas y hortalizas. Quien quiera trabajar y aprender permacultura bienvenido. Recibimos principalmente a voluntarios que quieran aplicar la permacultura en su vida y mejor aún en su comunidad, por lo cual estamos formando líderes en estas materias.
  
  En el caso de nuestro Host enseñamos dos aspectos básicos: Aprender a Leer el Paisaje y Aprender a Sentir el Silencio, estos dos aspectos básicos del ser humano no es fácil aprenderlos de la noche a la mañana. Nuestro estilo está basado en las técnicas de Fukuoka y muchos otros Maestros permacultores. Desde el año 2024 estamos aplicando agricultura biodinámica y los resultados nos tienen contentos. Los trabajos son variados e interesantes, dialogamos bastante ( es uno de los principios aprendidos con el autor Humberto Maturana);los trabajos en particular son consensuados con el voluntario, nada es obligatorio, todo lo que enseñamos tiene sentido. Lo que entregamos al voluntario es de alta calidad en todo sentido. El Parque no es un lugar común, por lo cual requerimos adaptación a lo nuevo. Todo aquel voluntario que quiera aprender y colaborar en un pequeño Parque, bienvenido. Recibimos sólo de a un voluntario (a) por los altos costos de su mantención. El presente año 2025 ha sido fabuloso en aprendizaje personal y como Parque estamos realizando varias alianzas, con equipos e instituciones para promover todos estos conocimientos, en particular hacia el mundo educativo y agrícola. Uno de los aspectos que estoy enseñando es cómo tu desarrollo personal e ideas se van plasmando en tu espacio creativo. Por ello confío en un futuro hermoso para nuestra humanidad.
