  NOTE: We are building a new commun area with kitchen and a room on top. We need volunteers for the final help with the mud of the walls, carpenters for the floor, furniture and small details.
  
  We are looking gardeners, carpenters / fix-it types, and cleaners.
  
  We are a tight knit international group looking for enthusiastic, creative, and healthy volunteers to help with different aspects of our ecologically focused tourism project! We grow vegetables and keep chickens, use solar panels and passive solar design, and teach ecological design and lifestyle techniques to locals and tourists.
  
  Help is needed with a large organic garden/vegetable orchard, grounds maintenance, events planning, and administration/ guest relations.
  
  Each Workawayer will have a main focus while on-site, though we keep an open and flexible policy. For example, we sometimes ask gardeners to help with guest relations, help to prepare breakfast, etc. At the end of the day, we work together to complete all of our tasks, while having a good time, eating good food, and enjoying this beautiful part of the world :)

  We are an international team working on an exciting ecological travel option and learning center for travelers of all backgrounds! We have a beautiful "Earthship" sustainable house. We worked with Michael Reynolds and Earthship Biotecture in March of 2015, building the house with 70 volunteers and students from around the world!! We have solar power and solar hot water systems installed, we used many recycled materials in the building (including car tyres, bottles and cans). We also have yurts and a tipi that we rent to travelers, a kitchen to prepare meals for ourselves and guests, and are in the process of growing workshop and excursion options for locals and guests. The accommodation is in a space place just for volunteers, next to the kitchen but when we are plenty of people some of us use our tent on the property with gorgeous Andean views! Oh, and we also do awesome communal food. We cook only vegetarian meals, primarily with ingredients from our own garden :) As well, we practice yoga, meditate, and are open to learning new healthy ways of self-care!
  
  If you want to learn some real-life and functional sustainable architecture and lifestyle techniques while helping with guests and property maintenance, you may want to spend some time with us!
