Eco Hacker Farm is an umbrella organization that helps create and support new and existing projects combining hackerspaces with permaculture farms. These projects offer sustainable living spaces where people can experience a lifestyle that doesn’t depend on the mainstream system, using simple, open-source, and affordable technology. Eco Hacker Farm’s current project is looking for volunteers with farming or woodworking skills in Southern Spain for up to 4 weeks. Accommodation and meals are provided.
