We are looking for volunteers who are willing to participate actively in all the process, who are open to work and learn in a wide range of activities ready to work physically and be responsible for the duties and agreements. We search for volunteers who are looking for living and working in a rural area connected with nature and community, who feel concerned about climate change issues and are willing to learn and live responsibly. We appreciate it if volunteers have some manual skills of using working tools, or other skills needed in rural areas, but it is not required. However some preconditions for rural and community life is needed.
We want to support volunteers in becoming skilled and competent in a variety of tasks that are important for living in rural areas and in a community.
We want to encourage and develop their creativity and entrepreneurship as they discover the potential and the different sources offered by this natural environment in order to enable people to live in a more meaningful and respectful way in rural areas

Horário: Usually, we work from 9:00 to 17 with 1 hour break, 5 days per week. For possible work on the weekend, volunteers get compensatory time according to the oral contract, to fit the actual conditions. For each month, volunteers have 2 days of holiday. We are not always following the working time, the most important is to fulfill actual needs of necessary works, garden and also needs of all our community.
Condições: Accommodation:
Because of reconstructing plans for volunteers', accommodations could change during the project. At the moment we provide for volunteers a separated part of a house – a flat with two bedrooms, a kitchen, a bathroom and toilets where we can accommodate four persons at the same time. In the same house but separately, there is also the head office of
the organization with ceramic and woodcraft workshops and another flat, where the director of the organization and his family lives.
Food:
Volunteers have their own kitchen. In the village there is a small grocery store. Usually they go to the nearby town to do bigger shopping trips in a supermarket. The volunteers usually cook or eat all together, as this is a part of living in a community, but there are no rules given by the organization, the volunteers make their own choices about their living together. Right now we eat all together as a community with different cooks daily. We grow our own food as much as possible!
Money:
In the first week of each month, Volunteers will get pocket money: 152€. Plus another 100
euros per month for food and usage.
Slovakia uses Euro, for those of you coming from countries that don't use it, be prepared by either changing
money before your travel, changing money at the airport or in the exchange places in the town or if you prefer just bring your bank card and withdraw money in the ATM's or pay with card, anyway it's always nice to have some pocket money with you at the beginning.
