Description: Since 2000, volunteers from all over the world have been participating in summer programs designed to improve the locals and kids vegetable farms. Kids/local people work very hard for hall summer but in autumn they got very small harvest compared to their hard work. So since 2014, we try to develop our farm more as a training center for eco-farming for the local people and kids. Local people and kids could learn in our center basic but very important ecological farming methods and know/how. Volunteers will work in eco vegetable farms and develop eco farming training centers. Vegetables from the eco-farm will be donated to the center of orphan kids and local families.
Type of Work: Main works are helping at orphanages and eco farm trough our work such as remove the weeds in the field, working in the greenhouse, making water canal for farm, making compost, etc. Quite tiring but let's enjoy it.
Study Theme: Eco farming methods/know-how of other countries. The future plan of international workcamps etc.
Accommodation: Summer house and Mongolian traditional tents which is GER (traditional tent). Need to bring Sleeping Bag! Cook by volunteers with local staff.

Approximate Location: Altanbulag sub-province, Mongolia. Beautiful typical Mongolian landscape area and life, 45 km far from Ulaanbaatar
Notes: Ulaanbaatar. One third of population in the country (3.01 millions) live in this capital city. Don't worry about the weather and it will be around 15-20 degree hot. But still sometimes weather could be changed quite. Also during the free days of the workcamp we will help you to organize some cultural exchange programs, excursions, etc
