    Description

    Probably the most chill and most fun Workaway ever.

    We have a toddler and an organic ecofarm, but your only official responsibility is enjoying life and contributing good vibes. And most of your own food.

    Ziggy (the toddler) is highly social and will probably make you into a fast friend. And you can certainly help with projects on the ecofarm if you would like. But if you just wanna decompress in a hammock the whole time, then do that!

    What else?
    * We strongly prefer that volunteers stay for at least one week.
    * Volunteers stay in screened-in cabins that are scattered around the farm, which is adjacent to two creeks.
    * You're responsible for providing and cooking your own food, but we aim to make that feel totally painless. We provide basic supplies like spices, plus plenty of direct support to procure your desired food items. We'll even feed you on the day you arrive so you're not juggling luggage and groceries simultaneously 🙏
    * The farm has a dedicated internet line that is fast and reliable. (Your host works remotely full time with zero issues.)
    * The cabins do not have electricity but volunteers can access a power supply at the main house.

    We are off the grid but close to the main road with easy access to the bus and busito. 12 miles from the capital city of Belmopan and 40 miles west of Belize City. The nearest farmers' market is in the next village (Cotton Tree).

    Please bring a headlamp. If you want to help on the farm, please bring work boots and clothes accordingly.

    We have a dedicated internet line that is extremely reliable and fast. (Your host works online full time with zero issues.) The cabins do not have a power supply, so having a powerbank that you can use at your cabin after hours (if you like to work at night) would be helpful.
