The Experience
We’re excited to launch a unique mushroom farming project, where shiitake mushrooms are grown on wood logs—a sustainable, ancient method. We're starting with 2,500 logs and need volunteers to help drill, plant spores, water, and care for the mushrooms. We’re also beginning bee farming, adding to our organic practices. Everything here is chemical-free, staying true to our commitment to organic farming. Interested in joining us on this journey?

I had a great time staying with the family, I got to work a bit in their farm, in which they grow almost all of their food, as well as cooking delicious food and learning about their lives. Everyone was welcoming and made me feel like a member of their family :)

I felt at home from the very first moment. The energy of the place and the family is genuine, welcoming, and deeply human. This volunteering experience wasn't just about giving, but also — and perhaps even more — about receiving. Each day was regenerative: in the small shared gestures, the connection with nature, and the simplicity of honest relationships. It's an experience that leaves a mark, reconnecting you to what truly matters.

This was my first Worldpackers experience and it was one of the coolest experiences of my life! I stayed for a week and I think that should be a minimum for any future guests. I was able to try various different farm tasks, help cook a few different meals, do an amazing hike and overnight camping with Kamal, and really sink into the beautiful life and home they have created. It was so nice to feel connected to all the food we ate since pretty much everything they grow in their farm; and on top of it every meal was so delicious! I instantly felt so welcome and was so sad to leave. Thank you ❤️
