  Descripción

  Hello, We are Ami & Samy.
  
  Our project was born out of our mutual dream to live close to nature, completely off-grid, with a self-sustained but comfortable regenerative lifestyle. We found our dream land in Alentejo, between the picturesque hills of Cercal do Alentejo and the stunning beaches of Porto Covo. We started out from scratch, as there was nothing on the land, and planted thousands of trees and plants to regenerate the soil. We built some amazing structures like the Zome temple for gatherings, concerts, retreats and other events, as well as a specious Kitchen area and hangout space, a stage for bigger events and festivals, a few comfortable toilets and showers, and many wooden platforms for our glamping tents to host our guests. We use solar power as our energy source and we get water straight from the land. We installed smart filter systems ( for both gray and black water) in order to filter the water and recycle it all back to the land via the irrigation system.
  
  We are currently looking for talented and experienced cooks who would like to experience and explore cooking for retreats (May-October), people who are happy to support the kitchen, do some of our the land cleaning tasks, gardening work, woodwork, and other farm and retreats supporting tasks. We are also currently looking for a land keeper who can stay with us long term and support the project in different ways. We like to encourage and inspire our team to grow and expend their own talents during their time with us, and we love to share this magic land with others.
  
  Much more to say, but If what you read here resonates with you, please feel free to get in touch with us and we´ll take it from there.
  
  Looking forward to hear from you!
  
  Ami & Samy

  Our season starts in May and goes until end of October. So that is the time frame in which we would love to have you. We priorities those who can stay with us long term.
  We would love to hear from experienced and good vibe people for our kitchen, cooking for our guests and enjoying light conversations with them, as well as people to help us with the cleaning and the maintenance/development of the land. In other words we are looking for these 3 positions:
  1. A talented Cook that can commit for the whole season or at least half of it.
  2. A land keeper which can take care of the land, do some all-round maintenance, and can work with wood to help us develop some new and exiting wooden structures (as seen in some of the pictures) as well as maintain the old ones. This position could be seasonal, or part-season, but ideally it will be for the whole year.
  3. Cleaning tasks - From general cleaning tasks on the land to support the kitchen crew, cleaning our Zome temple etc.
  
  You will be staying in a beautiful countryside environment surrounded by nature and animals, just 15 min drive from stunning beaches, 20min walk from the lake, and if you surf, you will find some of the best breaks in Portugal very close by.
  Depending on your position and our needs, we are willing to make this a paid position, where every hour you work with us will be paid. This means that you will earning between 410€ to 800€ per month plus accommodations (we can also talk about food as part of the deal).
  As a side kick, we also frequently let our team join some of the activities that we host on the land. It could be taking part in some of the activities offered in the retreats and take part in some of the events we host (concerts, one day workshops of all sorts and others). However, this part is very much subjected to the leaders of the retreats, their willingness and invitation.
  If you are not a experienced in the positions mentioned above we might be able to host you as a volunteer.
