Vibrant international eco-community creating a sustainable future

Community is connection, and this connection goes beyond language, country, or borders. More than seven nationalities came together at the eco village, connecting through the beautiful empathy of people like Alessia, Giorgio, Katia, Shanta, Tommaso, Fofo, and all the volunteers who were there. They made us feel at home, sharing unforgettable moments through food, music, nature, art, and deep conversations. Thank you for giving meaning to this journey, and a special thanks to Benjamin for the opportunity to be part of this beautiful community. Simple and practical tasks, excellent food, a cozy place.

I had an amazing experience here. This is my 3th volunteering experience and by now my best. I learned a lot about cooking & yoga, met international travelers and had amazing hikes here. It feels like a home. Here we are open and talk about our feelings. It's truly a special place I will never forget.

My time at the eco village has been incredible! From the first moment I arrived I felt like I was accepted into a loving family and community. Between amazing pizza nights, baking fresh bread, hiking in the mountains, fancy dinners and cozy nights by the campfire there was never a full moment! I feel truly blessed to have met everyone at the eco village and to be a part of the community even for only 3 weeks. I would love to come back again! Thank you everyone for your kindness :)

The eco village is a magical place that quickly felt like home. Nestled in the peaceful Apennines, it offers cozy rooms, delicious food, and unforgettable people — open, kind, and inspiring. The main downside was the lack of organization; with around 40 volunteers, stronger and more consistent leadership is needed. Still, the experience was deeply refreshing and gave me a true taste of Italy. Despite minor flaws, it's a solid 10/10 for me.

The eco village is amazing! I had a life changing experience there. I would recommend it to any traveler. The people are incredible, the environment is beautiful, and the vision for the project is wonderful. I had so much fun working with people from all over the world. We worked hard but had plenty of time to relax. There is a beautiful pool and lovely hikes all around the property. The community at the eco village is close knit and the connections are strong. I will not soon forget it. I will admit that it is still a young project and could improve in organization and structure but those will come.

Beautiful nature and meaningful connections with other volunteers really made the experience worthwhile. However, the project doesn't reflect what's advertised: there's no active syntropic agriculture or forest school, and tasks are very disorganized. High turnover and the host's approach create more of a hostel or summer camp vibe than a true community. There's a lack of structure, basic safety (not even essential gear like gloves for construction), and a clear vision for those seeking a solid, purpose-driven project. Two weeks felt like the right amount of time for me.

Minha estadia na ecovila foi maravilhosa. O lugar é lindo, a estrutura é ótima mas o melhor de tudo foi ter me conectado com pessoas incríveis. Conheci pessoas de quase 20 paises em duas semanas, tive conversas profundas, criei conexões verdadeiras, me diverti muito! A estrutura de espaço (um antigo hotel) e a alimentação foi muito acima do que eu esperava, comi comidas deliciosas todos os dias! *Como eu trabalho 8h no brasil, conciliar foi um pouco desafiador na primeira semana mas na segunda me virei super bem. Deixo essa dica pra quem for e tiver trabalhando remotamente e quiser ir

At the eco village, I had the time and freedom to socialise with a beautiful group of people, enjoy nature, develop skills, and work on personal projects. The location and property awed me, and the meals were fresh and wonderful every day. the eco village is in its infancy and there is so much that still needs to be done - this is a good place for you if you are interested in helping this project grow. Unfortunately, I couldn't align myself morally with the project, especially after discussing the origins and influences from which it was founded.

Our experience was mixed (3.5/5).Arrival was unorganized and not welcoming as aspected. Some rooms were moldy and smelled bad, while others were decent, seemingly reserved for long-term volunteers. We raised our concerns with Benjamin, but he didn't take the feedback well and barely spoke to us afterward.This left us feeling a bit disrespected.All the volunteers and staff were kind, the food (mostly vegan/vegetarian) was really great, and the work was fair and well-organized. The area is beautiful but remote, with little to do besides hiking. Overall, the people and nature made it worthwhile.

Felix & Theresa were offered the best room in the house for the first week of their stay. This suite (double balcony, private kitchenette, ensuite bathroom) was temporarily free and we gifted it to them, on the condition they move to standard accommodation a week later. Their behaviour was then undignified: they said that these rooms (popular with volunteers) were 'for Brazilians, but we Swiss are used to different standards'. This summarised their attitude: entitled, arrogant, and mean-spirited

Even though I only stayed here for 10 days and didn't connect with the project, I'm thankful for the chance to meet amazing volunteers. From the very beginning, I was welcomed with warm hugs and big smiles. I'll take with me the connections I made. Unfortunately my accommodation was not comfortable and not like the ones shown in pictures and definitely need improvement.
