Aprašymas
GAIA runs a permaculture program in Bozevce village, which serves as a polygon for natural building, permaculture, community living and sustainable practices. We nurture relations with neighbors and other villages, local food procedures, local institutions, etc. Our project proves that it is possible that people from different cultures, backgrounds, ethnicities, ages can live and work together, and that life in a village can be a right choice :) Through the years, we have hosted dozens of trainings, workshops and gatherings, and got support from many local and international volunteers, friends and travelers. With all of them, we tackled different environmental and social topics, shared knowledge and skills, and incorporated different solutions into our design and programs. The main activities will be around building an outdoor kitchen/dining space, which will be built of wooden and earthen items, using traditional techniques and mainly hand tools.
Apgyvendinimas, maitinimas ir transportas
The volunteers will stay in a house with 4 rooms, a small kitchen, 1 shower and outdoor composting toilet. There are several other composting toilets and outdoor showers as well. Volunteers should bring their sleeping bags and towels and we will provide sheets and pillows. Cooking and cleaning will be done in teams and food will be vegetarian, seasonal, local, healthy, and very tasty. On the property we also live together with several dogs, cats, goats, chickens, geese and bees. Lifestyle is sustainable, simple, and without much technology, even though access to the internet is available.
