We had a great time learning about permaculture farming. We were up around 7am each morning to feed animals and and eat breakfast together. Building, weeding, painting were some tasks with homemade kombucha breaks around 11am, lunch around 12:30 and then finished for the day unless on evening animal or dinner duty. The hosts were great and super welcoming, the pets are lovely and time explore the region. Card games together were a common things and the food we ate was great. We really enjoyed the experience!

Staying at the Center was an amazing experience, Simon and Jessica provided amazing support and were extremely welcoming, something which was very important to me as this was my first volunteering experience. During my time here I learnt many useful life skills such as plumbing, electrical work, welding and roofing. The food was also very good, with a wide variety of types of meals. In addition to how nice the actual volunteer site is, the town is very close to the farm and is full of very friendly people. Thank you Simon and Jessica for providing me with such an amazing experience!

writing Daniels review here as unfortunately we didn't get to it in time to publish the normal way.
Daniel was with us for close to 4 months. During that time he was up for helping with all asked of him and saying yes to every opportunity to try new things like entering a triathlon when he hadn't ridden a bike much before. We greatly appreciated his help and enjoyed having him around. Highly recommended.

A wonderful welcoming experience in a beautiful setting. Simon and Jessica were absolutely amazing and we had fun completing projects with the other volunteers. Gianni and I had an amazing time and we would 100% recommend this experience to other volunteers.

We had a fantastic week doing the internship at the Center Farm in Mizque! This internship was a very rich and rewarding experience, we got to learn so many hands-on skills including welding, woodworking, metalworking, plumbing, and gardening. It was amazing to be involved in such a wide variety of projects and to gain practical experience in each of them. A huge thank you to Simon and Jessica for sharing your knowledge, your space, and your vision with us. We highly recommend the Center to anyone looking to learn and contribute in a meaningful way!

I had an amazing time staying at Simon's place. It was a very interesting place and surrounded by incredible scenery. I completed a variety of tasks and learned a lot about the environment and Simon's clever and innovative systems. The whole family as well as the wide range of animals at the farm made me feel very welcome and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to have a new and exciting experience living on a farm in rural the Center.

My stay was wonderful, Simon and Jessica have a lot of experience hosting people and made me feel at home.They are very open minded and share a lot of their knowledge about permaculture and other surprising discoveries!I got to take care of the animals (chicken, rabbits and ducks), I have learned how to make a floor out of stones and ciment, as well as to cook nice things with the fresh ingredients they have in their garden. We always enjoyed a nice home made cambucha, playing games (note the most important rule: not let Simon win.)the surroundings offer lots of activities (river,hike,club…)

The experience at the Center was incredible! The hosts Simon and Jessica are lovely, their hospitality is amazing, I felt truly welcome at all times. They are very passionate about permaculture and the volunteering hours were created diverse and there was always something new to learn. Simon and Jessica put so much heart and effort into their sustainable project and their knowledge of their work is astonishing. Beyond the farm work, there was always something exciting to do in our free time like exploring Mizque, taking a swim in the river or hiking.
