Barbara and Agus are two of the most kind people you will meet! They were very patient with me as I worked on my spanish, answering all questions and slowing down to talk to me and make sure I understood what was happening, while also helping teach about both the local culture and environmental sustainability. You have a lot of free time here, so be prepared to busy yourself with different things.

A great first volunteering experience for me and my friend. Work varied between physical activities like cleaning up a forest, to gardening work. It was rewarding helping to get the farm ready for visitors in the spring. We also got creative projects including painting and making a video about our experience on the farm. You need to be a proactive person because you get a lot of freedom and spare time to do your own thing, and there's always more to do on the farm if you offer (I now wish we'd offered to do more!), otherwise definitely bring a book. Barbara and Agus are friendly and helpful :)

Barbara and agus are great people and made me feel very welcome in their home. on the farm i not only learned to engage with the animals and feed them, but also i learned a lot about sustainability. barbara took time, to tell me about the farm and let me know if i did any mistakes and showed me how to do everything properly.

Dos vasos llenos de leche gracias!! Can't recommend this experience enough, I had an incredibly wholesome time at El Trasgula with Barbara, Agus and their many loveable furry/non furry friends. We instantly became part of their daily life on the farm, learning lots and always having a great time. Wish it was longer ⭐️

Barbara and Agos are lovely people, always willing to share knowledge about the land, their animals and their Cider. Tasks are varied so you aren't stuck doing the same thing every day and the work is physical but satisfying. Some days it feels like you have the farm to yourself so if you don't mind having some time to yourself I would 100% recommend volunteering at the farm!
