About the workproject

We need 4 volunteers

We are an eco lodge with two wonderful treehouses and other funky eco-chic accommodation options starting to receive guests for maintaining its sustainability in Alto Paraíso, at the Heart of the Brazilian savanna.

We operate within the principles of permaculture throughout everything we do, planting organic, recycling materials to the maximum, bio-building and bringing body, mind and spiritual healing through retreats that happen in this super special jungle positive vibration location on the world's largest crystal bed surrounded by hundreds of waterfalls. There is a conservation project in action whereby and we are finding nice neighbours to populate the valley, instead of cattle farmers that deforest and deplete the valleys vegetation for pasture. We love permaculture, animals, planting our own food, agroforestry, art, music, health, spirituality, medicinal plants, treehouses, community, ecology and aiming for a different future for us all, co-creating and co-existing in harmony with Nature.

Presently, because of the costs, we can take on volunteers with exchange for accommodation only, being each person responsible for their own food costs. On average, volunteers spend about approximately 80R$ on weekly groceries shopping, which happens every Saturday. We usually give the volunteers a ride to the local market, but when the car can’t go there it’s possible to share a taxi ride with us (80R$). Please, confirm us that you agree with these conditions. So far, the volunteers that are here have been cooking and deciding what needs to be bought together, but that’s optional. Our kitchens are strictly vegetarian. If you eat meat, you can substitute your protein source by others, such as cheese, eggs, soy protein, grains etc.
