The Experience
Come help us out at my organic farm. The farm is hidden away from the noise of the city and volunteers stay in a private bungalow here. I lead meditation 2 times per day and welcome volunteers to join me and learn more about themselves and the Thai culture. My wife and daughter will share with you how to cook Thai food and you can learn from them. We have no wi-fi or electricity and live a simple, relaxing life here at the farm.

I feel nothing but affection and gratitude for Dang, the farm and Phone for the experience I shared with them and the other volunteers. My only advice is to be ready for a very natural environment, wich can sometimes feel challenging, and if possible to coincide with other volunteers. I truly recommend it.

I had a wonderful experience staying with the farm and his family for 8 days! Whilst there I had so much free time to immerse myself in nature, hang out with the other volunteers, and get to know the local area where we stayed. Dang's cooking was also incredible!! The mattress I slept on was unfortunately a bit uncomfortable, so keep that in mind. Overall I was able to practice meditation thoroughly and really dedicate my time to relaxing during my travels. I made lifelong friends with my fellow volunteers as well, it was such a wholesome experience! Thank you the farm family!

The farm's farm is one of a kind, a truly special place. Him and his family made me feel so welcomed. I am forever grateful for my experience, from planting potato's to doing chanting meditations in the Buddhist temple, it was an authentic experience that I will remember for the rest of my life.

I spent an amazing week immersed in nature at the farm. the farm was a wonderful host and always made sure we were okay. The work involved harvesting soya beans and planting potatoes. It rained a bit throughout the week so we usually only worked in the morning for 2 hours and had a lot of down time in the afternoon to chill. We also did other activities like going to the local temple and a jungle trek. Watcharas wife, Dang, is an amazing cook and all her meals were delicious. Thank you the farm and Dang!
