  Descripción

  I'm Mary, a creative, passionate human who cares deeply about Mother Earth and Regreening the desert. We are creating a garden space that will grow organic food, have movement classes and all types of educational offerings. Planning to also open a small space for local women to gather together and create dialogue across cultures.
  Currently have a small team of Bedouin and foreign friends helping collectively together to make this a reality, which is very exciting!

  Algo más...

  There is absolutely no shortage of things to do locally including
  snorkelling, diving, wind surfing, kite surfing, climbing or hiking..
  
  If all of that sounds too energetic! You can always just float in the salty sea or lie in a hammock and allow the sounds of the sea to lull you to sleep and dreamtime!
  
  An abundance of movement classes on offer locally as well from Karate to dance to improv to yoga..

  Podría aceptar mascotas

  On the garden site, you are allowed to bring a small dog or a cat, but our chickens take priority so if your pet is aggressive or anti-social, it's probably not the best option to bring them.. If in doubt please feel free to discuss beforehand.
