As soon as we arrived at the farm we were welcomed with open arms and felt instantly at home. Shirley and Yeilin are the kindest, loveliest people you will ever meet! The food was incredible, the work was fun and varied, and the whole experience was very chilled. We learnt a lot from these very knowledgeable women, and were also able to improve our Spanish through meaningful conversations, helped by their patience. Would 1000% recommend to anyone, we were so sad to leave!

Incredible people. Kind, welcoming, patient. They truly model sustainability in their ways of being, and they are so excited to learn from and share with visiting volunteers. They are strong women who taught me so many lessons not only about sustainable farming (animal care, reforestation, responsible consumption, etc) but about culture, self journeys, and the world. Highly recommended! It was my first Worldpackers experience, and I would have loved to stay with them longer <3 (had a next travel plan)

Overall very lovely experience. The farm was a beautiful and relaxing natural space, the food provided was healthy and delicious, and the work was reasonable. I had a great time conversing and I think my Spanish improved greatly in just one week. Would definitely volunteer here again.

My experience at Finca Mirador the project was adorable. From the moment you arrive, you can see how much love Yeilin and her family put into the animals, the farm, and their natural environment. The tasks are easy and chill, with just a few hours of work in the late morning, and the afternoons are free to go down town or enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The Meals prepared are local, healthy and definitely delicious. I learned so much about Ticos and the permacultur project, and I'm truly grateful to have met such passionate and nice people and have discovered a little bit more about this topic.

This was exactly what we expected about this experience ! The girls were really nice with us, the kitchen always homemade and healthy. We learnt a lot about Costa Rica and the organic farm. All was good

I had a wonderful experience at Shirley, Yeilin and Maria's place. I felt very welcomed, they cared so much about how I was feeling. Meals were delicious, the work was nice and not too hard and I've learnt a lot. They are really spiritual women and the conversations were always so interesting. Thanks you so much!

Yeilin & Maria are Shirley's daughters, their ecofarm is on a mountain slope totally immersed in nature, they have Hens and Goats, Dogs &Cat, the trio team is an absolute delight to practice all mannerisms straight from the heart. Every single action and conversation were all about working your heart chakra. We practiced Meditation and Yoga to start our day, lots of exchange about spirituality and essence of life, learning Spanish was fun and positive. Animal care & Nature care were part of the jobs, no time pressure whatsoever, more relaxed and intone with the environment. Pura Vida!

Absolutely loved my time with Shirley and Yeilen on their family farm. I learnt so much about the local culture, environmental impact, sustainability and farming in Costa Rica. I was the only volunteer during my stay, but never felt alone with the company of Shirley and Yeilen. Also some good local hikes around near waterfalls and jungle. Would recommend anyone wanting to learn, connect with nature and meet/ work with great empowering woman.

This is my first time in Costa Rica and I would most definitely like to come back. The experience is and was incredible and I really don't want to leave. The hosts are very friendly and are very fun to work with and talk to! The location is absolutely stunning with a view right across the valley which you get to observe whist working on the farm. Our trip to Maria to make homemade tortillas was very fun and delicious I will be making them at home when I get back! Overall this was one of the best experiences of my life and I'm very grateful to the Hosts for providing such an unforgettable time.
