Depth
Three programs. One purpose — to help you build the resilience that outlasts any hardship. From a week-long reset to a three-month transformation, we meet you where you are.
1-Week Intensive
A reset. A reboot. A week that changes the trajectory.
Designed for people who know they need a change but can't commit to months away. Seven days of farm work, fire, community meals, guided reflection, and nature immersion. You arrive exhausted. You leave reset.
- All farm-grown meals (3/day)
- Shared accommodation (private rooms available)
- Daily facilitated group sessions
- Evening braai gatherings
- Orchard & animal care participation
- Take-home resilience workbook
4-Week Deep Dive
Long enough to break old patterns. Short enough to stay committed.
Four weeks is where real change begins. You'll cycle through all seasons of the farm — planting, tending, harvesting. You'll develop a personal resilience plan and leave with tools you'll use for life.
- All farm-grown meals (3/day)
- Private accommodation
- Twice-weekly 1:1 facilitation sessions
- Weekly group therapy circles
- Full farm participation cycle
- Personal resilience plan document
- Post-program 3-month check-in call
3-Month Transformation
The full journey. For those who are truly ready to rebuild.
The full program. Three months on the farm means you experience every season, every harvest cycle, and every layer of yourself. This is for people who are ready to do the deepest work.
- All farm-grown meals (3/day)
- Private en-suite accommodation
- Weekly 1:1 facilitation + therapy
- Full farm stewardship role
- Business/life planning workshop
- Alumni community access (lifetime)
- Post-program 12-month support plan

Common Questions
Absolutely not. All farm activities are taught from scratch. What matters is willingness, not experience. Our facilitators guide everything.
It's both — and neither exclusively. RetreatCamp is a resilience program that uses physical farm work, community, and facilitated reflection as its tools. We have trained facilitators but this is not clinical therapy. If you have a clinical diagnosis, please discuss with us before applying.
Days start at 5:30am with animal care, breakfast at 7am (food you helped grow), then morning sessions (physical work + facilitated activity), lunch, afternoon deep-work session, free time, and communal braai in the evening. Lights out by 9:30pm.
Yes. We accommodate teams of up to 20 for the 1-Week and 4-Week programs. Corporate programs are customised — contact us to discuss your team's needs and we'll build a program around your goals.
Yes. We offer 2 and 3-instalment payment plans for all programs. Youth applicants may also apply for partial bursaries — contact us to find out more.
We're located in the Waterberg region of Limpopo, South Africa — approximately 3.5 hours from Johannesburg by road. We can arrange shuttle transport from Johannesburg or Bela-Bela for an additional fee.
We understand life happens. Refunds are handled case-by-case. If you leave within the first 48 hours for personal reasons, we offer a full credit toward a future program. After that, partial refunds apply.
