Un Goût de Miel
You can learn from beekeeping, to cook a great variety of food, gardening, harvesting even soap making !! Lots to learn here.
After work, we love to have a good meal and exchange about our culture, enjoy a firepit or a board game.
We try to have team building activities once a month. They are always fun. Usually, the team decide what they want to do. From kayaking, icecream, shopping to going out in cool places to discover.
I have one employee name Katy. She works full time during the week and love to meet and work with new travelers. She speak french, english and spanish. We also offer apprentiship for student with special needs. At the moment, we have one girl name Leila. She is with us one day per week during school time. You will also meet and work with othe volunteers. Some come 1/2 day per week other more. The schedule vary. I put in more than full time. You will mostly work with the other but with me when I it time to beekeeping and other perticular task. I speak french and english. You will be staying with my husband and I. Not pet, no kids (they are living on their own) You will be treated like everybody else, just with more free time !

I enjoyed my time at Un Gout De Miel, I got to be involved in a few areas and got to help harvest the fruit and vegetables, I helped package the honey which was enjoyable and got to meet some bees and learn a little more about them. In my free time I was able to go on bike rides and swim in the river around the corner which was super refreshing after a day working.
Overall I had an enjoyable experience so that you Nathalie, Stefan and Katy, and the ladies for welcoming me in to the team for a few weeks. All the best to you :))

My time volunteering with Nathalie was great! From the first day I arrived I felt very welcomed. She has a beautiful property with a nice beautiful garden, a river and even chickens! We worked from 8am-3pm and every day was a little different. You could be helping out in the kitchen, out in the garden, doing yard work or in the apiary. Theres not really one thing because of course it's a business and theres lots to do! She is an amazing cook and was very flexible with my dietary needs. If you're looking for to experience the countryside with kind and open minded people, I would def suggest!

Volunteering at Un Goût de Miel was an unforgettable experience. In just three weeks, I learned so much, thanks to the care and support from Natalie, her family, and the team. I’m especially grateful to Natalie for welcoming me into her home, to Katy for her patience and amazing French lessons, and to Stephen for the great conversations. A big thanks also to the lovely girls in the garden. I highly recommend this place, it’s truly special. Thank you for everything!
Un grand merci pour tout.

I had such an amazing experience here! Nathalie made me feel so welcome and at home. Everything was communicated clearly and the work is very much as described. My time here was incredible and allowed me to step out of my comfort zone while feeling totally supported by the people around me. The closest town is very small but has all the necessities but you need a car to be able to access the other larger towns close by or grab a lift with a family member. The property itself is very quiet but great for walking to the river for a swim or reading a book when work is done. I loved it here!
