    Descripción

    We are taking the first steps towards building a self-sufficient, multicultural community in Southern Spain. After the project changing hands very recently, we are now building upon more than 3 decades of work by the preceding guardians of this beautiful land, who laid the foundation for our agroecological project by promoting sustainable living, olive orchard, organic farming, and bioconstruction - enabling us to expand it today with a focus on community living.

    We want to bring together people from diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and walks of life to build a community based on caring, real connections and authenticity - creating an environment where people can live in harmony with nature and each other, with permaculture, renewable energies, and natural building techniques.

    Located just a 10-minute drive (or 30-min walk) from the cosmopolitan town of Orgiva (known as the “Capital of the Alpujarra”), the farm sits in a beautiful and peaceful valley nestled in The Alpujarra mountains, crossed by a river which irrigates the centenary olive trees. The land is approximately 3 hectares in size, with many other fruit trees, vegetable gardens, and having already 4 simple, self-built homes on it - as well as a large yurt which we can use to host retreats, workshops and other events. All is completely off-grid (solar power, compost toilets, etc). The closest village, Bayacas, is a 10-minute walk from the farm. Both Orgiva and Bayacas offer lots of opportunities to get involved in workshops, volunteer days, community events and fiestas outside of the farm.

    We are at the early stage of planning the work for the upcoming months, which will involve farming, construction work, team building, and art. If you have experience/skills in any of these fields, or a project of your own that you feel you could carry out within this broader vision, we’d love for you to get in touch! Please tell us a little bit about your experience/project in your introduction when you reach out. Looking forward to hearing from you!

    We give priority to volunteers arriving by the most sustainable means of transport (bike, bus, train....)
    There are bus connections to Granada and Motril via Orgiva.
    The Alpujarras is a beautiful area below Sierra Nevada national park.
    We cannot accept volunteers with drug or alcohol habits.
    If you have any mental or physical health issues please let us know so we can assess if this is the right place for you (including allergies, special dietary requirements etc.)

    There are lots of other organic farms in the area which take volunteers and the area is perfect for hiking in Sierra Nevada.
    We are also 45 mins from the beach although public transport is limited.
    Orgiva has a lively international community and there are mainly workshops,classes and courses on offer.
    Bayacas also has an active neighbourhood association and regularly organise fiestas and volunteer work days to tidy up the village which are good opportunities to meet the locals .
    In the summer the outdoor swimming pool is open and the local council organizes cultural events like flamenco concerts and outdoor cinema screenings.
