Summer Working Bee

December 13 @ 4:00 pm - December 15 @ 2:00 pm

Free
Gloves

Our Solstice Working Bees are such a great part of our schedule. It is a lovely opportunity to come together as a community and share in our combined energy and skills to work on the land, in the gardens and around the buildings. Most of the work is outdoors and there is always a need for a team in the kitchen. After all our hard work together we also have a wonderful celebration of the Solstice together.

Your Working Bee includes..


The weekend is a wonderful exchange of your love and energy for two nights shared accommodation, three delicious vegetarian meals each day, meet new friends, be a part of a community and work on lots of fun projects.
