I'm glad I chose the camping for my first volunteering experience. Toltepec is a really small town with the loveliest people I've ever met. The hosts treat you as a member of the family, I truly felt at home from the first moment I arrived. The way of living (as Don Lupe says) is as primitive as possible and it might not be easy to adapt, but to put ourselves out of our comfort zone is something we all should do every once in a while. I certainly will appreciate everything I have more than ever! I learned so much from the hosts, their workers and everyone I met in the town!

I thoroughly enjoyed this volunteering experience. 😀 It was my first time volunteering outside of the city, and I could really feel the nature around me—the roosters, cats, dogs, birds, and especially the clear air. There was a small river where I could swim after working, which was a refreshing treat. The working hours were reasonable, and the food was amazing. Thank you, Marina, for cooking and taking care of us. Lupe is a knowledgeable, fun, and nice person to talk to. I learned a lot from his stories. I feel so lucky to have had this experience. I will miss everyone..Thank you again

I am very grateful to have stayed with Don Lupe, Haber and Mari on their finca. They helped me understand the life and properties of cacao even better and how to harvest and produce it in a traditional way. I felt very welcomed, the food was delicious and I was able to improve my Spanish. If you are looking for an educational, authentic experience, this is a beautiful place to be.

The finca is a beautiful place to connect to nature and find calmness in our sometimes rushed life. Don Lupe and his family are very great hosts that really cares about the well-being of the volunteers. He is a fun person that has a lot to tell and teach. He is very open to feedback and new ideas to always be improving :)) I really liked his mindset. The working hours are very fair and you learn about cacao and you get to taste delicious chocolate. I recommend everyone to stay at the finca and enjoy the simple life in nature, enjoying the river, the birds and the clear sky every night :))

Volunteering at the camping was a fascinating experience. The familial atmosphere and daily tasks at the cacao farm were engaging. Accommodations were minimal, yet allowed for a deep connection with nature. Don Lupe, Mari, and Heber were incredibly welcoming and supportive, even encouraging my experimental cocoa butter making. Mari's home-cooked meals were delicious. Swimming in the river after the shift and campfires at night were magical. Communication with Don Lupe was effective. I highly recommend the camping for those seeking to disconnect and learn about cacao cultivation firsthand.

A unique experience. the camping farm is a magical place to disconnect from the chaos of the city. The amenities are minimal, but they take a back seat after such good experiences as nights at the campfire. I was lucky that my volunteering coincided with the town festivals, which are celebrated in the last weeks of January. During the week of the festival there was free food, greased pork contest, calenda, free mezcal, wow I had never danced so much in my life. Don Lupe, Mrs. Marina and Heber are very kind. The food was delicious. Thank you very much for such a good time.

I felt very welcomed at the Finca. The family helped me with any questions I had, Don Lupe was very clear and flexible with the work-schedule and the food was very good and healthy. Also they made sure that I get some insights into the different stages of the cacao cultivation. One has to be prepared for a bit simpler accomodation regarding the sanitary equipment, but in exchange one gets access to the beautiful nature, a clear starry sky and to the river on the property.

Merci à Lupe, Heber et Marina, pour leur accueil, leur patience et leur envie de partager. Je répare de cette expérience enrichie de nouvelles connaissances et d'une meilleure conscience de la réalité du travail du cacao pour les producteurs comme Lupe. C'est une expérience unique que j'ai vécu à la the camping.

I enjoyed my stay, even stayed a couple days more. Getting to know about the cultivation and the production of cacao is an experience, that not many people share. You should be ready to live under very basic conditions, don't expect some romanticized farmstay. It's hard and often dirty work at high temperatures, but you can bathe and cool off in the little river after. You'll have a lot of free time to mind your business, on the weekends you can take trips to the coast or further into the mountains. Marie is a great cook, there is always food on the stove. Muchas gracias Lupe, Marie y Heber!

Que experiência maravilhosa! Quanto aprendizado! Don Lupe, Marina, Heber, a gatinha Mai, os cachorros, as galinhas, os passarinhos, as borboletas, o rio, a terra, a selva cheia de cacau, as companheiras worldpackers, tudo, tudo, muito lindo. Don Lupe é amável, responsável e divertido, nos ensina sobre o cultivo desta planta que ele ama e sabe muito sobre, nos ensina a observar e a ter paciência. Marina é super querida, atenciosa, sábia e faz uma comida que é pura magia, criatividade e saúde. Eu passei 4 semanas na finca e recomendo 100% essa experiência. Sou muito grata a estas pessoas.
