Farm helper at a peaceful sanctuary

It was a ok experience. Negative points for me was the accommodation too small and uncomfortable. The food was basically the same every week and with a lack of nutrients. And they receive lots of volunteers but don't have structure to receive well them all. The work was easy in my opinion. KC is a good person and a nice boss. I also loved meeting Achyuta in goshala, good and lovely person. The city is good and the location is an advantage because is close to London.

Eu não recomendo e não voltaria para fazer voluntariado nesse local, comida muito apimentada, o almoço era “decente” a janta que decepcionava bastante, eu ia ao McDonald's que tem perto de 4 a 5 vezes na semana ou passava fome. A acomodação deixa muito a desejar, não se engane com as fotos do anúncio, onde dormimos é totalmente diferente, dividi um quarto com 4 pessoas, no quarto não tinha espaço para andar direito, muitos voluntários para apenas 3 banheiros com chuveiros e 2 máquinas de lavar que funcionam. Único ponto positivo que enxerguei nesse local foi a localização e a cidade

It was a nice experience, the work wasn't difficult, everyone was very nice, the caravan where we slept wasn't not too bad, the best of all was being able to share with many volunteers from different countries which made my stay fun. The only thing that isn't good is the food as it's Indian Vegetarian food which means a lot of spicy and not much variety to choose from.

I can't say much about it because for health reasons I didn't stay, but the people there are nice and polite and the place is huge and beautiful.

Foram ótimos dias na fazenda, aprendi sobre o plantar e o colher e me conectei com a natureza. Fiz várias amizades e o Kc era super gente boa . O que deixa um pouco a desejar é a higiene

Tive um bom momento em Watford! Os responsáveis eram muito atenciosos, brincalhões e abertos para conversa, os voluntários que estiveram comigo foram incríveis, tivemos muitos momentos bons juntos e foi muito bom ter um momento de conexão com a natureza e, principalmente, com as vaquinhas! Eu esperava me conectar mais com a religião, aprender um pouco mais sobre… o que infelizmente não aconteceu porque não sentia tanta abertura para os eventos, só sabíamos um ou outro que aconteceria. O ponto negativo foi a acomodação… as caravanas eram pequenas e antigas! Tinha até uma beliche sem escadas!

The work on the farm can be hard, but you enjoy being in contact with nature, KC is a great person, he explains the tasks with great kindness, they are all good people, I would definitely return. the food seasoned and spicy, very traditional. Negative point, the accommodation, little space for so many girls.

Not a good place to stay in winter. I knew that I was supposed to stay in a caravan but I didn't think it was in such bad condition, there were rats inside and even if there were some small heaters it was still cold and cold air came through the windows. The place was certainly interesting and the volounteers nice and kind and I would have liked to stay there but I never could in those conditions

The experience was nice, I was surrounded by nature and the people of the community are very friendly, especially Achyuta and KC. My favorite part of the work was to drive the tractor 😎🚜 . Indian food is very tasty. In my opinion, the area for improvement would be the caravan, it needs a little maintenance. In general, if you like gardening, fresh air and you are open to learn about new cultures, this is for you. 🌱 HARE KRISHNA!

I'm very grateful for this experience and I recommend it in case you want to get out of your comfort zone and do different things as in my case I've never worked in a farm before. The volunteer manager was responsive before my arrival since he was able to answer all my questions and also during my stay. The work was a little bit hard since it was outside during winter, but other than that it's fine. The stay is in a caravan which has the basics: beds, kitchen, shower and toilet. Nothing fancy, just don't expect to sleep in the temple. They provide vegetarian Indian food.
