Reforestation Volunteer Project in Kenya

Sadhana Forest Kenya is doing such amazing work. It is really a life changing and heart warming experience to be part of it and contribute. Their vision is really profound and they carry it out with integrity and sincerity. Also, the Samburu people are so amazing and it is great to be able to help them.

Are you looking for an amazing, unique, sustainable community where you can volunteer and help out where help is really needed? Sadhana Forest Kenya is the place for you. This project is doing amazing work when it comes to reforestation and creating food forests for long term food security around local peoples homes. This gives you the ideal opportunity to get in contact with local from the Samburu tribe. Sadhana Forest Kenya has wonderful core values like veganism and gift economy etc. It’s a must visit!

I came to Sadhana Forest Kenya after having spent a good amount of time at Sadhana Forest India. At this outpost about three hundred kilometers from Nairboi, (and about fifty kilometers from the nearest paved road or electrical grid), the spirit of service and eco-friendly living are every bit as alive and inspiring as in India. Sadhana Forest Kenya is a volunteer community whose main goal is to establish food and water security in the Samburu region through planting local, indigenous, drought-resistant, food producing trees. Locals can come here for traning, and Sadhana Forest staff and volunteers also pay visits to homes, schools, churches, and so on in order to plant the trees raised in the nursery here. Every aspect of life in Sadhana Forest Kenya is meant to compliment and contribute to the work - thus the solar and wind power, vegan kitchen, compost toilets, low-flow handwash stations, simple accommodation. If you have ever considered steering your life in a more eco-friendly direction, this is the place to see and feel these values in action. Sadhana Forest Kenya also provides drinkable water and solar charging power for locals, which is crucial in an area with no electrical grid and frequently low water reserves. Sadhana Forest Kenya also provides an opportunity to meet and work alongisde Samburu people; to live simply and close to nature; to create solid bonds with other volunteers; to enjoy top-quality sunrises and sunsets every day; and to see the stars and milky way at night. Please visit, or even better, come stay! It's an amazing project, staffed by truly dedicated people, doing important work. My month here has been beautiful and I'm sure I'll be back again.

If you are looking for a place where you really want to connect deeply with the nature and with an old samburu culture, Sadhana Forest is really amazing. I learnt to plant food trees in hard condition climates, I found answers to climate change, sustainable nutrition and the most important in human unity. Samburu people are welcoming you so friendly and the market every Saturday is a nice opportunity to feel the nomad spirit, full of life and colors. Thanks for Sadhana Forest Kenya to be.

If you are looking for an authentic and once-in-a-lifetime experience, wish to connect with the wonderful people of the Samburu tribe, want to try the most compassionate diet and eat whole food vegan meals, would like to live without creating any waste, are ready to live within nature and in the most eco-friendly way possible AND wish to plant indigenous drought-resistant food producing trees for the people who need it the most, Sadhana Forest Kenya is made for you :)
