Description
We are leading the way in Brasil and beyond in social and sustainable building and lifestyle.
We want to live in harmony with nature, produce our own food & energy while the land grows in richness and aesthetic beauty. We will treat our own waste, generate our own energy and help the less fortunate whilst doing so. We generate income by inviting tourists who will be accommodated in Eco Lodges and will be offered locally cultivated organic food and a wide variety of sports & workshops.
In 2015, we bought a beautiful property (300.000 m2) in Cardinot, Nova Friburgo, Brazil. It took a long time to find this property and we were excited that we found exactly what we wanted. A cool climate (1200 meters altitude), clean drinking water, mountains, beautiful views, security and nearby quality infrastructure in Nova Friburgo.
We have established ourselves over the last year by bio-constructing a couple of eco-lodges. We are now accepting volunteers to come and learn a trade with us and pick up some Portuguese whilst you do so.
Interested in joining our vision? Please see the "Help" section for the type of help we are currently in need of.
