Description du projet

Volunteering in Sunny Hill can be life changing experience for a person, that would like to experience community life in luxurious simplicity by living and working with us and at the same time help the local community to awaken dormant potential of this beautiful area. The program involves development of a new hiking trail and help with organic food production on our permaculture garden. The volunteers will discover possible points of interest along the trail, photograph them, describe them, map them, set up the internet presentation and meet orgaic farmers along the way that will offer food and shelter to hikers. The volunteers will have an opportunity to learn  about organic food production.  They will help on our permaculure garden as well as to other organic farmers in the area. Aim of the project is to bring new sustainable opportunities to depopulated area in Istrian hinterland.
