The farm offer an experience of sustainable agriculture in practice, where volunteers can connect with the reality of rural life, interact with the local traditional community, and contribute to a project focused on producing healthy, pesticide-free food. We are a certified organic production centre that operates with agroforestry systems to produce food and aromatic herbs for essential oil distillation. If you have taken a course in agroforestry and wish to apply your knowledge in practice, or if you have hands-on experience in agriculture or agroecology, this position is for you.

We are a couple – Giulia and Pedro – dedicated to caring for nature and producing food and medicine while regenerating the land. In addition to us, the farm is supported by skilled rural workers who have been involved in agriculture since childhood and have much to teach us. During your time volunteering with us, you will learn how to cultivate organically, working alongside us in planting, harvesting, weeding, and many other essential activities of rural life.
