Volunteer On A Sustainable Eco Farm (Short Term)

We are a self sustainable Eco-Farm in Brazil. We have been working with volunteers since the very beginning of the project. We aim to become an example of a sustainable international community guided by the principles of Permaculture; growing and producing; while being in balance with nature through organic farming; renewable energy; agroforestry and bioconstruction; but having the support as well of a responsible use of some modern technology. In order to achieve this in Eco Caminhos; we believe healthy human development its a must; we must all learn to work hard together and respect each others cultures and backgrounds; we want to learn from our volunteers and them from us. Here we find ourselves away from the hectic rhythms of the modern system; we firmly believe this is a perfect environment for personal and community growth.

We offer volunteers an amazing and unique experience; helping us in all the different sustainable projects we run while receiving hands-on training. This volunteer program is not just about the work on bioconstruction; agroforestry and organic farming alone; it is about being part of a small and passionate community; contributing to it with each own personal touch; learning from us as well; and growing as a person in a natural; inspiring; hard-working and calm environment.

Short-term volunteers will work approximately 24 hours; 3 days a week; and the work can vary between agroforestry; bioconstruction (natural building); and other jobs at the farm; normally on Monday; Wednesday and Friday. Tuesdays we offer several presentations on permaculture; agroforestry; bioconstruction and other topics; while on Thursday we organize tours and outdoor recreation. Weekends are free to enjoy as you prefer; although we usually organize some extra activities as well.
