Educational Groups Recruitment

We are looking for someone to help us recruit university, or school groups for experiential learning holidays and educational experiences and fun in Costa Rica. Rancho Mastatal is an education center and working permaculture farm. We offer profound, innovative and authentic apprenticeships, residential workshops and guest experiences. We practice, promote and teach about natural building, fermentation, permaculture design, renewable energy, agroforestry and more. Our Primary income to support all of our educational work and community development is from hosting School and University groups on our campus. Time spent on our campus varies with the interest and age of the groups, but typically secondary school groups, spend 4 - 6 days at the Ranch, where they learn about Natural Building, Permaculture and Farm to Table food, whilst enjoying the local wildlife, community and swimming holes. It is often an opportunity for kids to reconnect with nature, each other and learn and experience life in a practical meaningful way. The remaining portion of their time in Costa Rica is usually spent at the Beach, learning to surf, visiting national parks etc... but groups exact itinerary can be customized to meet their needs. We also run more in depth experiences with older students from university focusing deeper on our areas of expertise. In order to effectively complete this job we need someone to visit and experience our center in Costa Rica (self-funded), develop marketing material, brochure etc... and then recruit and identify individuals that are interested in bring their groups to learn and live at Rancho Mastatal.
