Update meal arrangements: chef cooks lunch, supper is individual
The chef cooks lunch every day, so lunch is no longer collective food
prep during Karma Yoga — that block is now just karmic chores and
household upkeep. Supper drops the sign-up sheet and is each person's
own responsibility. Also aligns the meal description with the public
site: vegetarian inclusive of honey & local eggs, gluten-free,
nut-free (no "vegan" framing).

Karma Yoga / Deep Clean Days

If you notice it, nurture it — floors looking grubby? Give them a scrub. Rags and sheets piling up? Throw them in the wash.

[!tip] Local Life In the greater community of Ariege there is almost always something going on — daily artisanal and organic produce markets, traditional (Occitanie/Celtic) live music and dances, workshops of all kinds, outdoor sports (kayaking, horseback riding, skiing). The culture is vibrant and we recommend you explore!

You are responsible for your own mode of transport and for taking time off within our flexible work schedule, so long as you consistently stay committed to the exchange.
