Description
My name is Tara. My mom and I moved here and live on a 2 acre property with a house and cabanas.
There's many projects in the works and we are seeking people that can bring in extra creativity and skill.
Belize is amazing; a small gem with a lot of love. It's magical here. On the grounds, there is really great energy and everything we're doing is for something greater with a purpose. Just being a part of this exciting adventure, creating, growing, healing, expanding will be a great experience.
The bay is a mile down the street. There are Mayan archeological sites near by.
Please note: This is a vegan establishment, we welcome all but we do not allow any products of animals, including eggs, dairy, fish, meat, on the property.
No offense but no cigarette smokers.

The area is in a small town with a lot of love. Community engagement is essential to part of life here and at times we will be partaking in community service for those in need and picking up trash in the neighborhood. The people here are kind and hard workers. They can teach us skills.
Aide
We do projects based on the talents and skills of who's visiting.
February 1 -21 We are working on building a bottle wall. I need 3-4 people during this time.
1. We are working on renovating the main house including kitchen and bathroom, as well as, the treehouses and guest rooms. We need people with basic carpentry skills to build tables, cabinets, and shelves.
2. Corozal has an outdated practice of burning trash. The town needs help implementing a more sustainable way of dealing with the trash. We are in the process of creating multiple community compost systems. We need help building bins, collecting and sorting waste.
3. Artist of all types. We need murals, paintings, sculptures, decorating, etc. Also, we are experimenting turning trash into art and other useful items.
4. I need someone who has experience in YouTube channel, taking videos and photos. Having fun with social media, documenting the projects.
5. I need someone with experience in tile mosaics. It would be great to have someone with an artistic flair.
6. Maintenance, yard work, and cleaning is expected of everyone.
7. Fitness/yoga people to incorporate group activities.
8. One and two week visitors are great for dedicated projects and general help cleaning and weeding.
9. Looking for someone to dedicate time to the yard to weed whack, tree trim, clean up yard, weed.
When inquiring, please let me know specific dates and how long you would like to stay.

Hébergement
We have single rooms with shared bathrooms and small kitchen area, and treehouses with full kitchen and compost toilets, depending on availability. There is no hot water on the premises. Food will be provided for 3 plant based meals for 5 work days, 5 hours a day. Bottled water will be provided.
I need to note that during certain times of the year, the smoke fills the air from burning of trash. There are times its not present for months, times its just in the morning and times when its persistent throughout the day. It mostly happens with the winds come in from the north, which, is the winter time here. I can't control it but I do my best to ask people to stop burning. If this should happen, it's up to the discretion to stay or not.
Autres infos...
Fun things to do, go to the bay swimming, bike rides, walk through town, visit Mayan site, snorkeling, water volleyball. Belize bus transportation is fairly inexpensive to get around Belize. People take trips on the weekends to the islands. We are 4 miles from town. There are bikes to use for your convenience.
