Volunteering here has been an amazing opportunity! we learned so much on the farm about organic practices - the heat can be tough but the work is so rewarding. the views around the whole village are incredible - cycling around and swimming in the river was such a highlight! the meals provided are soo delicious and vegetarian friendly. from before we got there to leaving, the team have been so friendly, helpful and welcoming - thank you for our experience! :)

My partner and i had an amazing time at the farm, we felt very welcomed and part of the team. the work is great you learn a lot, it can be a bit more challenging as it gets hotter but you can take breaks as needed. we are vegetarian and they were very accommodating the food provided was amazing. you can visit the stream on your breaks and it is very refreshing. the views are unreal and it's so nice to cycle around the village. I would recommend this experience to those considering if their up for tough but rewarding work!

I had a great 2 weeks and fully recommend it for any interesting in permaculture and farming. The food was also delicious! As the description says, the work is physically tiring but you can take lots of breaks. Id recommend a good hat, UV sleeves or long sleeves.

Despite I was alone during my visit, but I wasn't lonely at all thanks to the crew who made me feel so welcomed. The work on the farm was tough but I guarantee it'll be so rewarding to do things with your own hands. The hours were just as written, and I loved having Sat & Sun to rest or explore nearby cities. the project always reminded me to rest in between and patiently showed me the right way to do things. Every meal by Fei Jie was pure love on a plate. Summer heat and mosquitoes were real, so bring long sleeves and mosquitoes repellent. I am grateful and I can't wait to come back soon.

Thank you, Elvi! Even though you came alone, you completed many tasks by yourself and were a great help. I hope we have the chance to meet again!

I had an amazing time at the project! The farm cultivates all kinds of fruits and vegetables, so there is a lot to learn about. The staff were all super lovely and were always making sure that we take enough breaks during shifts and had enough food in our bellies after. Besides learning about organic farming, I especially enjoyed riding the bike around the village and it's neighboring towns, or going for a swim in the nearby river! It's the perfect place to slow down and be in nature.

Absolutely amazing time at the project! The team and volunteers are friendly and welcoming. Learnt a lot of things regarding organic farming practices. During my time there, I did things such as weeding, mulching, harvesting, woodwork. Tasks can be physically demanding but manageable. However, mosquitoes are no joke, so take extra precaution (long sleeves and long socks are a must!) A great place to slow down and enjoy life, great scenary and friendly locals. Food is awesome too! Take note, nothing much to explore nearby, might need to take train to further places and explore during the weekends.

Volunteering at the project was a truly special experience. From day one, I felt welcomed into a warm, tight-knit community. Yes, farm work can be physically demanding, but the hours were fair, the workload totally manageable, and the tasks changed day to day—ranging from greenhouse care and tree planting to the surprisingly satisfying process of dividing chives. What really stood out was the team's kindness and patience; they were always generous with their knowledge, turning each task into a chance to learn something new. Just a heads-up: the mosquitos don't mess around, so come prepared.
