Descripción
Our goal is to maintain and protect the ancient garden with 1000 year old plants and trees and at the same time produce vegetables and fruit in a time honored, eco-friendly manner. The 9 hectare garden contains olive groves, fruit trees and vegetable patches. Some of the things grown here are lemons, oranges, grapes, artichokes, zucchini as well as the local mirto berries and of course olives. The major part is vegetables.
We are currently some people working all year around with the garden; who is taking care of the cultural activities and who is responsible for plant extracts, productions of oil, marmalade from lemons and orange, who joined the volunteers to support the many projects in San Pietro in Silki. The work we need help with is general upkeep of the gardens, like cutting grass, pruning bushes and trees, general improvements to the infrastructure (Outbuildings, fences, trellises for the grapewines and supports for olive trees) and of course planting, harvesting and making the marmalades, oils, etc. Exact kind of work depends on the time of year.
Recently we have canalized the water for irrigation with the aim to start permaculture's projects and Lotus project.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje

The property itself is located near the touristic and cultural center of Sassari in northwestern Sardinia. In your free time there are plenty of activities close by in Sassari and the bus station is located close by if you want to take a longer trip. There are many quaint towns to visit, like Alghero, Bosa and Castelsardo. The coastline in the area is not as exploited as other parts of the island and you can find many nice beaches not far away.

Both the island and the town of Sassari are incredible, and well worth seeing.
The association has a lot of space and few people to work with, which leaves many places abandoned.

All staff is helpful, and every day they are asking if you need something. Highly recommended for responsible and positive people. They need help for many things. They ask for five hours a day, and if you want to do more hours....good!
