Verified community representatives can:
Homes run on off-grid solar power (only one community house is on the grid) and take running water from natural streams, with some lots collecting rainwater. Parts of the land have fibre-optic internet; elsewhere people use line-of-sight connections or Starlink. It is a vegan community farmed with permaculture methods, and members live free of alcohol and hard drugs. Volunteers and residents usually eat an all-raw diet.
Rooms and houses are rented by the week or month. Renters have no work obligation beyond weekly house cleaning and are welcome at the community's permaculture and other workshops, free of charge. The community areas have shared kitchens, and there is usually a weekly community food order. Day visits take in the community area, the lots and the waterfalls.
Volunteers, who must be vegan, generally stay one to three months, bring their own tent and bedding, and get weekly workshops on fruit-tree care, soil, compost and more. Anyone hoping to live here long term starts as a volunteer.
The climate is tropical, with around 1,900 mm of rain a year. Nights rarely drop below 18 °C. The driest months are December to early February, and March and April are the peak of the local fruit season.
