Descripción
We are an Eco-spiritual centre in rural Tuscany. Our emphasis is on reviving land and community. Our inspiration is the Kibbutz movement and the Jewish tradition of the Shekinah /Mother Goddess.
We are looking for idealists to repair our world with a more sustainable, local-based lifestyle. We value practical and artistic skills including cooking, garden work and cleaning. Children very welcome. Our slogan is 'Heal the land, heal yourself'.
We love the idea of the Mother Goddess as a healing, planetary and female-honouring symbol and host a temple to her. The philosophy behind it is to create a space to focus on seriously protecting the Earth and its creatures and values like nurturing, communicating and cooperation rather than the ruling patriarchal death wish trio: competition, combat and corporatism.
Anyone attracted to this place and our goals is welcome. We are not looking for holidaymakers but people who want to contribute and participate in our long-term goals. Minimum stay is usually two weeks.
PS. No smoking on the property, including patios and gardens.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
We are part of village life so you can interact with friendly people and learn about new and old ways of living in the Italian countryside. We have an on-going philosophical and art project to celebrate the Mother Goddess idea and paint a wooden statue to her in a grove of trees near the house.

Ayuda
As we are in large rural buildings, and have some land and trees to look after any help is welcome. It would be great if you could go down to the local markets and do some shopping and help look after our animals, a Borzoi dog and a long haired cat, brushing and taking for walks. PLEASE BRING STRONG SHOES OR BOOTS FOR WORKING AND WALKING IN THE WOODLANDS.

Of this workaway experience I could tell for hours how amazing is the location. Living in an actual tower, in the middle of nature, with dogs and cats waiting for your company is priceless. You could stay hours only to look at the landscape of the mountains.

Merci beaucoup Ray
Ray was always great: interesting person with whom it's easy to feel comfortable all time.
The work was very simple and the animals to take care were lovely (specially Sibi, the russian dog).
The neighbors were the kindest.
Will miss the place!
È stata una grande opportunità per mettere in pratica quello che avevo imparato fino ad allora.
Ray mi ha sempre lasciata libera di sperimentare, e ha accolto ed incoraggiato le mie proposte in cucina, nella pulizia e riordino della cucina...e in qualsiasi altro progetto di costruzione o nel giardino /… read more
