  Description

  Hi, I’m Rekha, originally from India, and I’ve been living on this sacred piece of land in the Mediterranean countryside for the past 20 years.
  
  I share this space with my loving dog Jimmy, my zen cat Mango, and my chickens. My two children are now grown and studying in Spain, and this new chapter of life allows me to open the doors of the farm to even more kindred spirits.
  
  Our farm is named after turmeric, the healing plant. It is the fruit of many years of love, vision, and dedication. Over time, many incredible volunteers have helped me shape this place into what it is today: a vibrant, creative, and nourishing haven for retreats, workshops, musical gatherings, and deep connection with nature.
  
  I am a yoga teacher, Ayurvedic consultant for women, nutritionist, and founder of a small natural cosmetics laboratory, where many of the ingredients come directly from the land itself. I live a holistic lifestyle, while also being very active and creative. Once a month, I offer conscious cooking events for the local community.
  
  Although I now run the farm mostly on my own, I am surrounded by an inspiring circle of musician friends, artists, and like-hearted souls. Together, we celebrate life through music, food, fire, and connection.
  
  🌱 What I Believe In
  
  I believe in living consciously and harmoniously with nature. My intention is to become increasingly self-sufficient, and my daily life revolves around practices that support balance, simplicity, creativity, and integral well-being.
  
  🛠 What I Need Help With
  
  I am currently looking for enthusiastic, open-minded volunteers aged 25 and up, ideally with some experience in sustainable living, gardening, building, or off-grid life, to join me in the following projects:
  
  Starting the summer garden and working with the earth
  Building and developing a natural swimming pool
  General land care: pruning olive and almond trees, tidying, and nurturing the space
  Helping with the organization of events and retreats
  
  I value creativity, initiative, presence, and a willingness to learn. Whether you are into gardening, building, art, cooking, music, or simply offering your hands and heart, there is a place for you here.
  
  🏡 What I Offer
  
  In exchange for your time and energy either 3 hours without food or around 5 /6 hours a day, 5 days a week, you will receive:
  
  🌿 A colourful Mandala caravan to rest and recharge
  🥗 Three delicious, healthy vegetarian meals a day
  🎶 A peaceful environment surrounded by nature
  🧘‍♀️ Access to the yurt to practice yoga in your free time
  ✨ The chance to be part of a meaningful project rooted in purpose, beauty, and love
  
  If you are passionate about nature, simple living, healthy food, music, healing arts, and authentic connection, our farm may be calling you.
  
  I look forward to welcoming you here and sharing meaningful moments together.
  
  With love,
  Rekha
