Location: Yujing, Taiwan

Our Eco-village includes an Organic Farm, a large Retreat Center which hosts Yoga & Meditation retreats and Permaculture Courses. In August 2015 we completed the construction of our new Yoga Wellness Center which holds regular Yoga Detox Retreats and other wellness programs.

Here tasks are varied and depend on the season. During the winter we grow most of our vegetables and in the summer we mostly focus on caring for the fruit trees etc. Help in the farm involves planting, harvesting, mulching, weeding, making compost, irrigating and cutting grass etc.

We also produce jam, chutneys & pickles and recently opened a part-time bakery. Help with Cooking for staff & volunteers, light construction, repairs and beautifying our space is also a welcome help.

Volunteers with farming, carpentry, bread making and vegetarian cooking experience are especially welcome.

Accommodation
We have 2 shared bedrooms with attached bathrooms and hot water (one for females and one for males). Up to five volunteers stay in each bedroom. Sleeping mats, pillows and bedsheets are provided. Volunteers are requested to bring there own sleeping bag, if possible. There is also a common room with open plan kitchenette, bathroom and sitting room with WIFI.

The activities here are varied and any skill in different fields is welcome. Volunteers work 5 hours per day, in return for food and accommodation. We generally work Monday to Friday and have weekends off. Volunteers can stay for a minimum of 28 days (if possible) and up to several months.
