Descripción
We are a family-run eco-farm and newly registered nonprofit organization , located in beautiful Loei, Thailand. What started as a small garden-to-table family farm has now grown into a much larger mission: to build a community-based learning and growing space focused on sustainability, creativity, and compassion.
Our work combines organic farming (cacao, coffee, coconut, herbs, and more), tree planting, supporting elderly workers and children from low-income backgrounds, and crafting meaningful experiences for both locals and international volunteers.
At the heart of everything we do are our core values: caring, creativity, kindness, and connection. We warmly welcome our guests as part of our extended family and hope they will embrace these values, showing respect and appreciation for this community, the people of Thailand, and all living beings.
We believe that everyone has unique gifts and talents to share, and we look forward to seeing how yours can contribute to this special space. For you, our home will be “Sabai Jai”—a place of happiness, peace, and freedom of mind.
When you write to us please include your name, where you are from, dates you can come to us, and why this project impacted you or why your heart is calling you to us. We respect you and we ask you to respect us in sharing a bit about yourself and your why
What we are looking for in you
- Self motivated
- Great can do attitude and open heart (and mind)
- Works well with others and can self-manage tasks happily
- A peaceful, respectful outlook on life
- Openness to communicating without words sometimes (we are so lucky to have a tight knit community of neighbors and local grandma's who come to help us in many different areas, most are not fluent in English, but are fluent in smiles and energy, they appreciate your heart-led communications a lot)
- An openness to learn about our ways of life and culture (there can be as many learning and growing opportunities for you as you choose here)
- a belief in helping each other and building each other up, (we work together for the greater good of all, not to compete)
- Clear, respectful communication
