Description
Discover our place, a 53.8-acre haven of sustainable agriculture in Goa, India, where we honour Earth Care, People Care, and Fair Shares. Immerse yourself in the timeless art of syntrophic agriculture, woven into our permaculture approach, and reconnect with nature as our ancestors did.
Here you'll experience authentic Indo-Portuguese hospitality while staying in free accommodations, including tents, huts, or dormitories. With 8 common Western toilets, community kitchens, and refrigerators at your disposal, you'll have everything you need. We provide the ingredients, and you get to enjoy preparing your own meals!
Your volunteering journey here includes diverse activities like weeding, tree pruning, animal husbandry, tourism guiding, cooking, construction, and more. Work alongside our team from 8 AM to 12:30 PM or 2 PM to 5:30 PM, with the freedom to contribute as much as you're comfortable. Your efforts help us sustain this unique ecotourism project.
It is perfectly situated near Goa's top attractions, like the Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary, Ponda's cultural temple town, Dudhsagar Waterfalls, and the ancient Tambdi Surla Temple. Our farm, once infertile and located in a mining zone, has been transformed using organic waste and Jiv Amrut, turning urine into a powerful fertilizer and pesticide.
With emergency transport and 24x7 ambulance services available, along with our friendly multilingual team speaking Konkani, English, Hindi, Marathi, and Portuguese, you're in good hands.
Join us and be part of a unique adventure in sustainable living, all while exploring the rich cultural tapestry of "Incredible India." Start your journey here and experience the true essence of Goa!
