Description
Surrounded by the hilly forest of Fruška gora and close to the city of Novi Sad, Serbia, our project is an intentional community in its beginnings.
As this year brings new ideas to be put into practice, we are happy to Šumska for volunteering again, and welcome you on board :)
We are a family-based group of 7 people of different ages, who live and work together while creating a regenerative space, that hosts guests and events around eco-tourism, sustainability and regenerative practices, education, nutrition, art, and culture. The community and the space is named Šumska.

BUILDING TEAM
This year we are continuing to build another two earth homes, and preparing the space for forest school.
All building is done by the principles of earth architecture and natural building.
We are looking for people who are interested in natural building and have some practical experience with the tools and construction to help us out in building, and maintaining the place.
....
HOSPITALITY TEAM
Besides the construction, we have opened our home to guests, travelers and event participants.
We could use help in preparing the space for guests - like cleaning, helping in the kitchen, gardening and watering the plants...
FOREST SCHOOL TEAM
We started the forest school project 2 years ago, for the children (around 3 - 10 year-olds) and this year we continue with the activities in nature with the little ones!
We are looking for a person who loves being with children in nature and who are passionate about natural learning, self-directed, child-led education and pedagogy, who would like to help take care of them and enrich the program with diverse activities outdoors.
The minimum stay for the Forest school team is 2 months (its possible and preferred if you can stay longer).
