Descrição
Aloha from a hidden corner of Hawaii’s jungle. Join our hands-on permaculture immersion at an evolving off-grid jungle homestead.
We are bringing a forgotten 5-acre piece of tropical jungle back to life with our hands, hearts, and respect for the land. This is more than a project; it’s a living classroom in sustainable homesteading, permaculture, and off-grid island living.
Every day here is hands on permaculture immersion and learning . You’ll learn side-by-side how to:
• Clear invasive species then plant and tend food forests with native and Polynesian-introduced trees (ulu/breadfruit, kalo/taro, mai‘a/banana, rare palms, mango, avocado, lychee, citrus and dozens more)
• Care for free-range chickens.
• Harvest rainwater, tend solar systems, and cook on wood fires, — real off-grid skills most people only read about
• General cleaning and maintence on the existing structures
• Prepare meals from whatever the land gives us that week
In return you share your own culture — your language, recipes, stories, and whatever cultural experience you may have.
What you receive:
• Sleeping space inside our large barn-style shed. Separated by gender or couples. (Cot bed, comfortable, and dry)
• Access to any fruiting plants and wild pig.
• Basic foods. Rice, oatmeal, eggs, flour
• Hot showers with plumbing toilet
• Wifi access
• Use of bicycles
• Kitchen with propane cooker, fridge, utensils.
• Daily immersion in authentic off-grid Hawaiian jungle life
• Practical lifelong skills in permaculture, renewable energy, food preservation
• A profound connection to nature and to this very special place on earth
We ask for
• 2.5 hours a day, 5 days a week of light, varied help (always alongside us )
• A minimum stay of 1-2 weeks so the exchange feels real and meaningful
• Lots of curiosity, respect for the land, and a desire to both learn and share
No experience needed — only a good heart, willingness to smile through a little sweat, and excitement about living simply and deeply for a while.
If you’ve ever dreamed of waking up to birdsong, eating fruit straight from the tree, learning how people can live gently with the jungle. This is your place.
Send us a message and tell us a little about yourself, where you’re from, and any relatable skills you may have. Can’t wait to meet you and share cultural exchange!

David only asked us to work about 2.5 hours a day, and the tasks were spontaneous, varied, and simple. Once you finish your work, you’re free to enjoy this beautiful island. It’s about an hour by bus to Waikiki or the North Shore and so on.
I especially recommend this … read more

Showed up ready to hustle and fly.
He cleared brush like a boss, no time to sigh,
Chickens and coops? He gave ’em the high five!
A funny, hardworking, sweat-soaked delight,
Hauling and fixing from morning till night.
Qusai the legend, our go-to buy,
Made the off-grid life a whole lot more fly!
Five stars, come … read more

Would happily host again.
Farm work is usually done by noon, leaving plenty of time to explore or relax. Since it often rains, waterproof shoes are recommended because the ground can get muddy.
Thanks to David for providing the gym on the property. I was … read more

If you don’t have a car or bike, you’ll either spend a lot of time on the farm or walk quite a bit because the nearest bus stop is a 30-40 min walk. I … read more
The work was enjoyable and varied: pickaxing and prying up small trees, shoveling overgrown grass and mud, cutting branches, and more. Some tasks might need a bit of labor (as least for me as a girl), but in a fun, rewarding way—it felt like a great (just a right amount) … read more
A superb welcome and a diversity of work; we were among the first to arrive at their new site. It was certainly very basic, but an excellent experience that will remain in our memories.
Thanks David, for the week we spent with you, we really enjoyed helping you with your project.
Well-organized, relaxed yet productive vibe, and warm presence from day one.
They truly stand out – highly recommend! Thank you both
