The land is big and the forest around beautiful and easy to explore! During winter the yurta are very nice accomodation and even if you need blankets the cold is not too strong You will get in touch with nature and permaculture and also practice your German (; I had a good time !

Frank is an amazing host, and a funny and amazing person overall: he's gonna make you feel part of the family from the beginning. Diandra is super sweet and caring, very welcoming as well. You're surely gonna meet good hearted people there. I had a great experience, perfect to reconnect with nature and enjoy peace, not to live some greek experience and party. The place is fantastic, the yurt where you'll sleep is super stylish: if you don't mind leaving city comforts behind you're gonna be fine. The food is extremely good, best bread and apple juice I've ever tried :) Absolutely recommended!

This is a great project for anyone who wants to get in touch with nature and learn about living sustainably. The mountains are beautiful and it's a great place for fresh air. Frank is a great host who was communicative and respectful of my dietary restrictions and religious requirements. Just note that the closest bus stop has to be driven to. And in the colder months there is no heating except in the main trailer. Great program overall. I learned a lot about construction, permaculture, and sustainability.

My month with Frank was incredible! I learned a lot about permaculture with Diandra, which allowed me to complete a beautiful land art project! Every day, I did different things, so it wasn't boring, and Frank is very funny, even though sometimes I didn't understand everything because of my English. Frank's pizzas are truly incredible, as is his cooking in general! I learned a lot about different cultures and had a great time with the other volunteers! This experience allowed me to step out of my comfort zone. I would love to come back to follow the project's progress and see you again :)

Frank has an amazing project. He is trying to make a real impact in the world seeking ecological goals as clean energy, organic food and implementing permaculture principles. I'm so glad of having the opportunity to collaborate here. This is a perfect place to learn and connect with nature.

My experience was unforgettable. Frank was the most welcoming and we had so many fun times, there was always music and singing. It was an honour to be one of Diandra's first permaculture students. This learning opportunity was the highlight of my experience and something I will carry with me forever. If you don't have transportation it can be challenging to explore surrounding towns but Frank was always helpful. During my month stay I built garden beds, paths, composts, benches, collected apples and began production, maintained plants, restored chairs, set up and worked a concert, and more.

Very nice volunteering to have more contact with nature, you will have a tent with a nice bed, not much comfort but definitely worth the experience! The tasks are simple and the hours are respect! I highly recommend it:)

I spent 3 wonderful weeks with Franck on his farm! The place is great and constantly evolving. I loved the atmosphere of the yurts, wagons and meditation areas, it really is a great place to rest and work in a relaxing atmosphere... Even if it can be hot, everything is arranged to work in the best conditions! And last but not the least, Franck is an amazing cook! I highly recommend a stay!

I had such a great time at the farm, the food is really tasty! The tasks were focused to watering since we were in the peak of the summer season, although there was other tasks quite easy to develop. Frank is an excellent host, very kind, helpful, with a lot of ideas in his mind, I'm glad to have provided a hand.

It was lovely to work on the farm, the hosts were welcoming and friendly. Unfortunately the hot climate was not suitable for me and I had to leave earlier than expected but I really wished I could stay longer. If I were to advise any future travellers it would be to make sure you are suited to hot temperatures and maybe okay with a few bites. For me the lack of air conditioned facilities made it difficult to deal with the heat as someone from a cold wet country. I also react quite severely to bug bites and they are extra hard to avoid if you are immersing yourself in farm work.
