Volunteering at A Quinta
We warmly welcome volunteers who wish to live and work in alignment with nature, bring presence into action, and contribute to a co-living space grounded in self-responsibility.
We're looking for volunteers who would like to commit for at least 1 month and are willing to share this experience and learn with us in this process.
YOUR CONTRIBUTION:
We invite your support in various areas of our evolving homestead. These may include:
Cooking meals for the team and/or guests
Cleaning and caring for shared spaces
Gardening & food forest care
Holistic animal care (sheep)
General maintenance and land care
Light construction or renovation support
Tasks will be aligned with your interests, skills and physical capacity. You are not expected to do heavy labor if it doesn’t suit you – your contribution in the kitchen or through hospitality is just as valuable.
You’ll begin with a gentle orientation period of around 2 weeks, during which you can explore different tasks and settle in. After that, a greater level of self-leadership is appreciated. (Shorter stays may also be possible – feel free to contact us.)
