I absolutely loved my experience here! I would have stayed longer than a week if I could. Elisa's meals are incredible, and she's super open and easy to talk to. You can be really independent and manage your schedule however you want, which I really appreciated. Just don't hesitate to take initiative! The environment is amazing surrounded by nature, animals, and beautiful calm vibes.

It was my first experience with the platform Worldpackers. For me, it was a great experience, even though I might have learned more if it had been in a different season. I really enjoyed both the time and the impressions, as well as the conversations with Elisa. The tasks at the end of October and the beginning of November were manageable. What I did for the first time was the olive harvest. It will certainly remain in my memory for a long time, like everything I experienced during this time.

This was my first Worldpackers experience, and it was truly magical. This place is the perfect choice if you want to immerse yourself in real farm life. The dogs and cats running around were so loving and I already miss them! There was no strict schedule we could manage our own time and complete the tasks whenever we wanted. Elisa served really delicious food, the meals were always prepared with fresh vegetables straight from the garden. I'm the biggest fan of her pasta made with whole-grain flour. I'm so grateful for this unforgettable experience.

Elisa is such a smart, strong and brave woman. She is fully committed to her project and philosophy and, rightly so, takes a lot of pride in what she does. The food she cooks is delicious and all the animals living there are good boys. It's also worth visiting the little ancient towns in the nearby area (strongly recommend Civita di Bagnoregio). Overall It's been a really positive experience, I was sorry I had to cut It shorter than initially planned. You should definitely go for it!

The experience is marvelous. At the beginning it's a challenge to adapt to be in the forest, but it's awesome finally. Elisa is a great host, servicial and the food which she cooks is local and so good. All is fresh because she has a garden with vegetables. The cats and dogs are loving. The first time is better that they see you with anyone else and they are used to you in no time. The home of volunteers are separated from the main, and if you want to visit another places, you must bear in mind that it's necessary to think about it in advance due to the distance and bus schedule.

Elisa is a kind and generous host and ensured I was comfortable during my stay. Tasks included weeding, planting, cleaning, feeding the dogs, and stacking firewood. Washing dishes after meals is also appreciated. As others have mentioned, Elisa is a fantastic cook and you might be lucky enough to meet some of her interesting friends. For future volunteers, I would note that the volunteer accomodation is up a small road separate from the main house. There are lots of great villages and walks to explore nearby - just plan your free days in advance as regional buses/trains can be limited.

Had the best time at the farm!! Elisa is a wonderful host who not only taught me about gardening, but also shared many valuable life lessons. Volunteers usually stay in a cabin a few hundred meters from the farm, which provides plenty of privacy. For the future, it could be helpful to add a few photos of those rooms as well. As other reviews have mentioned, the food is absolutely amazing. If you're interested in sourcing your own food and cooking with the ingredients you have, Elisa has so much knowledge to share. Really, really hope to come back soon!

Exactly the experience I was looking for:a peaceful, relaxing, and wonderful place surrounded by nature where I was able to meet so many wonderful people. Elisa is such a nice person, always interested in the needs of the volunteers, and the food she cooks is on another level. The work is flexible based on your skills and interests. Honorable mention goes to the kittens and especially the dogs who always keep you company and are incredibly sweet. I miss everything already!🫶🏽

This is my first worldpacker experience and I absolutely love it. The host Elisa treated us very well and her cooking was amazing. You definitely won't get hungry during ur stay here. The work was as described on the app and by Elisa before arrival. Working hours are very flexible. I learnt the lots about sustainability. This is definitely an experience for people looking for a farm life experience. You will strive in the environment whether you have extensive knowledge with weeding, harvesting veggies ect or whether you have come from a more city background but willing to learn.
