Description
NOTE: If you’re looking for comfort, there are easier places to go.
If you’re looking for something alive, something honest, something built with earth, fire, plants, people and intention...
You may love it here.
Come help us make this place happier, more beautiful and more alive.
One wall, one tree, one meal, one sunset at a time.
Rio grande do Sul | Brazil
Hey guys,
Welcome here.
This place did not appear overnight.
It is the result of more than ten years of work, mistakes, rebuilding, experimentation, persistence and love for the land.
My name is Pedro. I’m an architect, landscaper and builder, born here in southern Brazil. Over the years I traveled through different places, lived in different cities, spent time in China, worked many kinds of jobs, studied engineering and later architecture. But eventually life pulled me back to the soil.
I started caring for this land in 2013 and officially acquired it in 2018. Around that same time, I was preparing to move to Italy. Then a violent storm destroyed the roof of the old house here. The travel money became a roof. One decision led to another. Instead of leaving, I stayed.
And little by little, this place started becoming what it is today.
At its core, this is an experiment in regeneration and forest citizenship. A search for a healthier and more meaningful way of living between nature, architecture, food, community and beauty.
Modern urban life often disconnects people from the natural world. Everything becomes too fast, too artificial, too noisy. Here we try another path.
We work with:
agroforestry
bioconstruction
natural materials
food forests
landscape regeneration
art and handmade spaces
simple and healthier routines
connection with nature and community
But beyond techniques, there is also a deeper philosophy behind the place.
We believe spaces absorb intention.
A wall can carry care.
A garden can transmit peace.
A kitchen can feel alive.
A trail can invite contemplation.
Even small details can change how people feel.
We are not just building structures or maintaining land.
We are cultivating atmosphere.
Over the years, volunteers from more than 17 countries have passed through here. Artists, carpenters, travelers, gardeners, architects, filmmakers, cooks, dreamers and people simply searching for a more grounded experience of life.
This place became a safe harbor for good souls on the road.
Right now we are entering a very active building phase, especially focused on bioconstruction and autoctone building (using materials from near by and putting or hands on it)
Earth. Water. Wood. Fire. Hands. Rhythm.
Real work. Real learning.
There is also a strong connection here with ancestral knowledge, nature rituals and traditional plant wisdom, always approached with respect and responsibility.
If you feel called to step outside the automatic world for a while, reconnect with nature, learn practical skills, create beauty, and help build something meaningful, you are welcome here.

What Kind of Skills we appreciate here:
Cook / Kitchen & House Manager
Food matters a lot here.
We are looking for someone who can:
prepare daily meals for the team
help organize the kitchen and common spaces
manage food stock and cleaning routines
work with fresh and seasonal ingredients
ideally know or be curious about edible plants and local food culture
If you understand cooking as a form of care, you’ll probably fit well here.
Builder / Craftsman
We are in an intense bioconstruction phase.
We are especially interested in people with experience in:
carpentry
woodworking
construction
natural building techniques
tools and structural work
This is real building, not decorative volunteering.
If you enjoy creating things that last, you will enjoy this experience.
Gardening & Land Care
The land is alive and constantly changing.
Tasks may include:
pruning
planting
transplanting
soil preparation
raised beds
orchard maintenance
ornamental gardens
agroforestry systems
general landscape care
If you enjoy working with plants and understand that beauty lives in details, this might be your place.
Content Creator (Photo / Video / Social Media)
We want to tell the story of this place better.
We are looking for people who can:
photograph and film daily life
edit videos and images
help with storytelling and social media
capture atmosphere, not only aesthetics
We value authenticity much more than influencer culture.
Other profiles are welcome too
If you feel aligned with the spirit of the project and believe you have something valuable to offer, feel free to reach out.
A few things to keep in mind
This is a hands-on place. Work can be physical.
We value autonomy and initiative. <- REALLY
Nature comes before comfort here.
Expect simplicity, not luxury.
The work routine is usually flexible and not excessively long.
We generally do not provide full daily meals, since many volunteers prefer managing their own food and rhythm. But we often share harvests from the land, collective meals, barbecues, fireside dinners and special moments together.
In exchange, you will find:
practical learning
connection with nature
meaningful experiences
cultural exchange
beautiful landscapes
silence
good conversations
sunsets
community
and the strange peace that appears when life becomes a little more real again
If you are looking for a comfortable escape, this may not be the place. (at least yet ehehe)
But if you are searching for something grounded, alive, creative and meaningful...
You may feel at home here.
Come help us make this land happier, more beautiful and more alive.
One wall, one tree, one meal, one sunset at a time.
