Fill out the form below and let's see if we're right for one another.
No. You need land, or a serious intention to have it, and a willingness to work.
Moderately. Digging, pruning, carrying biomass, wet slopes, livestock. Tell us about mobility limits and we'll adapt — most blocks can be.
Mild and wet in October — sixteen to twenty-two degrees, frequent rain, no frost. Warmer and drier from May through September. Bring genuinely waterproof clothing whenever you come. Rain doesn't cancel fieldwork, and soil pits read better wet.
English.
Yes. A companion rate covers the room, all meals, the evening programs and the social side.
Fly to Ponta Delgada (PDL). Direct from Boston, Toronto and Lisbon, with connections through most of Europe. Transfers are included.
Not yet. We're pursuing accreditation for 2027 and we'll say so when we have it, not before.
Sixteen, and we cap it there. You cannot correct sixteen people's pruning cuts properly, let alone twenty.
