Detalhes

Descrição
The farms consists of the retreat (next to Aya Rock) and the Public Creative Space. It was born from the desire to create a place to Expand Life Force Energy. It means Expansion of Lifeforce. The land itself is a sacred space containing ancient cave paintings and represents a gathering point to expand and celebrate our unique gifts, talents and experience the joy of life. It took 5 years before the right land found me and now the dream of creating a place for deep connections and expansion is unfolding.
The Public Space symbolises a space for free expression, creativity and expansion of creative energies through modalities like movement and dance, meditation, music, art, play and more.

Seek workaway persons interested in building new spaces (construction, timber) , farming (planting trees and irrigation) and permaculture and vegetable garden and getting involved in creative workshop space (Art Barn) and the creation of the off-grid space

I spent a great moment at this workaway.
The retreat center is located in a very cute region, lot of nature and mountains around, very calm and relaxing.
As it is the begining of the project, much work are waiting for volunteers! I worked a lot with Timo, employed there, who is an amazing guy,very curious, open minded and has a solution for… read more

This was my first Workaway experience and it was Tim’s first time as a Workaway host. Due to complex circumstances, Tim could only be at the farm for two of the ten nights of my stay. Most of the time, the farm is managed by Timo, who is the caretaker and who lives in a small hut next to the farmhouse with his partner, Alison. Timo is hard… read more working, inquisitive, a fast learner and has a smile that can lift the cloudiest of days.

I was fortunate that another Workaway, Mael had arrived shortly before me. If it wasn’t for Mael’s company, guitar playing, lively conversation, and wicked sense of humour, I think I would have struggled with the lack of interaction. The farm house is spacious and comfortable: the beds are big, the shower has good pressure and there is a bath. The internet works well, even during load shedding. There is no washing machine, so you will need to do this by hand, using the buckets provided (there is something very charming about sitting on the back step, your arms in suds, the sun going down and the chickens scurrying about your feet!). The kitchen implements are very basic, so if you’re into making bread and cakes and biscuits and pastries, you’ll need your ingenuity!

The property is remote and transport would have been useful (neither Mael or myself - or Timo and Alison had transport). As a knock-on from this, it was a huge challenge to put food on the table. That said, I understand that going forward there will be some basic supplies available for future Workaways - along with the use of a bike/s - and this will make a big difference in terms of ensuring the basic needs for the Workaways are met and offering a more even balance to offset the skills, energy, time and patience that the Workaways bring to projects of this type.

There’s an 8.00 am meeting with Timo to discuss the daily tasks and a weekly task list (weeding; planting grass; making fences; tending to the compost; planting trees; bottle cutting; plant propagation; making films…) Most importantly, there’s scope to instigate your own projects and ideas. Tim is very easygoing and flexible and stays in touch via weekly online meetings. The off-shoot projects that Timo, Mael and I worked on included creating a circular waffle garden to cultivate local medicinal plants; putting together a taxonomy of the plants growing within a specific grid area; laying the foundations for future biodynamic production (including BD500 preparation); creating a huge Tree of Life Sculpture and meditation focal point in the Art Barn; creating personal art pieces, stories and signs which are now integrated into a permanent installation. We also shared several group meditation’s and everything aligned to enable two shamanic journeys as well.

The farm setting is beautiful. The mountains are stunning. The air is fresh and clean and the sunsets are simply jaw dropping. It is the kind of place that allows the possibility for deep soul exploration alongside the practical tasks. There is potential for significant personal growth, but this will be dependent on how much of yourself you are able to give to the project.

Tim and Chrissy are beautiful souls who radiate light and it was a definite highlight when they were able to join us towards the end of my stay and the evening of music and food by the campfire at Aya Rock brought a perfect end to my time here. (Thank you for the lift back to Cape Town 🙏🏻)

I will look back on my experience here as one of growth, laughter, deep discussions, and forming strong connections with the land and the people around me. Timo, Mael, Tim, Chrissy and myself formed a strong connection and I’m confident that we will all see each other again one day.

Thank you Tim and Chrissy for the wonderful experience and the fabulous opportunity 💫⭐️🤍
