Learn about all aspects of permaculture and help build a community building and build a nursery in the hills of Nepal. In this course, you will get hands on experience in the areas of soil, composting, gardening, natural building and appropriate technology.
Practical work
Some projects we plan to install during the internship:
Water – Install grey water system and solar water heater for showers
Garden – Make compost, plant trees and plants, design landscape
Building – Build a nursery, build a bigger adobe oven, build accommodation and classroom
Trail maintenance –General cleanup, make signs for hiking trail
Mango Tree Eco Resort is in Lamjung, Nepal about a 4 hour bus ride from Kathmandu. During the course we will still be in the rainy season, which means we will get a lot of rain, but it will be warm.
We will be camping and will have access to flush toilets and showers (no hot water yet, but we will be building a solar water heater during the internship)!
Meals will be traditional Nepali food, prepared and served at Mango Tree.
