Hospitality & Cooking volunteering

The farm is a space hosting a community of people including workers, volunteers, or residents. We also welcome long-term and short-term guests in a tree-house, cob houses and a yurt. We organize various events which vary from time to time: Permaculture Design Courses, Natural Building Courses, Yoga classes that are open for our local village community to join and as well as friends and international participants. Hospitality team takes care of all accommodation and common spaces – making them clean and cosy, arranging more nature-based decoration and bringing home-like atmosphere.
