Program Details

Our family farm has been producing medicinal and aromatic plants since 1983, located just 800 meters from the sea, in the heart of the Audierne Bay — a true natural paradise and an important ornithological hotspot, surrounded by ponds and preserved coastline 🐦🌊.

I decided to host volunteers because I truly enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds. I appreciate curious, open-minded helpers who like to learn and exchange experiences.

Daily tasks are organized according to the weather and natural rhythms. We ask for help half of the day, so you can fully enjoy the surrounding nature, peaceful environment and the many hiking trails in your free time 🌾🥾.

🍽️ Lunch is shared together.
🥗 Food is provided, and helpers are free to cook their own meals in the morning and evening.

I hope we will share beautiful moments, good conversations and meaningful experiences together.
