Live, eat, learn, work and play on a tropical farm in paradise. Hawaiian Sanctuary is an eco-retreat and
permaculture center located on the Big Island of Hawai’i.
Our internship program is ideal for those who want to actively engage in a co-creative,
intentional community environment while practicing
sustainable living. We provide opportunities to integrate with nature, live in harmony with the
land, grow your own food, drink
water from the sky, and harness
energy from the sun.
It is a challenging, yet rewarding,
experience that will enrich your mind, body, and spirit.
