Come and volunteer with us!
Only with the help of dedicated volunteers can we transform Maitreya into a thriving community project. To ensure our permaculture garden is flourishing and the retreat center is growing sustainably, we constantly evaluate our needs for helping hands depending on the expertise and our ongoing projects on the land.
​
Sharing mutual values and goals with the people who support us is very important to us. We encourage self-responsibility and self-reflection and practice sharing circles in order to be able to communicate openly and transparently. At Maitreya we follow a non-harm approach that ensures we meet each other with compassion instead of judgement.
​
Open positions you can find soon on our website and at WWOOF.net
​
If you feel called to support us, you can also send us an unsolicited application in English via the contact form.
