Permaculture Farm & Hostel

Finca El Zopilote

About the Program

We are a Permaculture farm and hostel which has a fully productive organic garden; an observatory tower; a water filtering system based on a constructed wetland; and a yoga outdoor studio. Since there is always plenty to do the farm we welcome volunteers with open arms.

There are various work opportunities ranging from working in the farm; managing the pizzeria or handicraft/organic shop; teaching yoga; general maintenance; organic farming; preparing natural products; and volunteer coordinator positions.

Participants will get to see how an organic tropical farm functions on a day to day basis. The farm always seeks to innovate and by helping and contributing to ongoing and/or new projects; you will acquire numerous new skills and learn about Permaculture.

We can organize Spanish lessons with local teachers if required at a cost of US$3 per hour. There are numerous free-time activities for volunteers such as yoga lessons; hiking; horse riding; and various courses (bread making; pottery; etc).
