I loved relaxing on the farm's beautiful farm. It was a genuine local experience in rural Thailand. The food was fresh and yummy. I went during the off-season, but I learned about bamboo, Buddhism, and got to go to hot springs, a lake, a waterfall, and an amazing local festival. I dug a trench for water and helped build a fish pond. Make sure to bring anything you need, and something to do, as it is rural and there is no electricity, but you are able to charge devices as needed. It was a very calming and peaceful place and feel free to ask me questions about it!

During my stay at the farm's farm I really liked being surrounded by nature, living a slower life and getting an insight into the life of the lovely the farm family and the local people from the village :) After having some working hours in the morning we always had a lot of time to either recharge or to go explore the area together! I really enjoyed connecting with other like-minded volunteers, working together, reflecting about the day by the campfire after meditation & also spending time with the very welcoming local people (communicating only with a few words and lots of smiles πŸ’œ)

My stay at the farm was truly extraordinary. Apart from working on field (garlic harvesting), I've had an opportunity to help local community with road building, cutting down bamboo and bushes to create a new place for cemetery in neighbouring village, visit home of the locals or clean outskirts of the temple. I truly enjoyed walking meditation in the morning, chanting and meditation in the evening. the farm and his family are very kind people with big hearts always making sure that volunteers are happy. I will definitely come back one day. Thank you for this outstanding experience ❀️

Whatchara Farm is the kind of experience any long time traveller should do, you don't realize how stressed you are until you go in a Farm in nature, quiet, where there is appreciation for the small things! The food was good and healthy, and i learned to looove sticky rice. I would advice though that if you're expecting easy work relaxing all day, maybe with a tv or wi-fi or restaurants and services around you, maybe it's not for you. The Farm is in a very small village of locals and countryside, and if that's your thing, you are going to love this place! Thank you for everything, i loved it!

It was the best week of my trip so far! the farm, Dang and Phone were the most heartwarming people I have met. Everyday there was a different work task to do, so it got never boring. I learnt a lot about Buddhism, Thai culture and farm life in Thailand. This place is perfect for settling down for one week, meeting new people and get in touch with the culture. It is their personal space too so be nice and respectful! Much love to the farm πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡­β€οΈ

I had such a beautiful experience at the farm! Everyday truly held a new adventure and learning opportunity. The farm itself is very magical, so calming and quiet. The food was always delicious (and vegetarian!), and Dang always made sure we were very (very) full. If you are looking to slow down, and connect with beautiful, like- minded people, this is the place for you.

Delicious food, Lovely people and a pure nature experience! We enjoyed our stay at the farm very much! Dangs food is like eating at a restaurant every day and it was amazing meeting all the other volunteers! We recommend bringing a head-flashlight, a power bank and some warm clothes for the night! We loved the excursions we did and the opportunity to engage with the locals! We would always come back!

Working at the farm was a great way to immerse myself in local culture. The family is very kind and Dang cooks so well! The work is fair and can be quite fun (one day we harvested beans with the local community ☺️). The location is amazing, surrounded by nature β€” the whole place is rustic and simple and I love it. It can be a bit isolated and too quiet, so I would recommend going with a friend or making sure other volunteers will be there.

This was my first experience volunteering at a farm and it couldn't have been better. the farm got involved everyday teaching us about the land and Buddhism practices. Dang is funny, friendly and an amazing cook. Their daughter is cool, I wish she'd hang out with us more but I guess she has school. Best of all were the other volunteers who I hope I'll meet again as we became best friends. All in all, the work to chill time balance is perfect and the simple facilities are more than sufficient. Thankyou to the farm and Dang, you've inspired me to volunteer more.

My stay was so diverse in activities, it was a great first experience volunteering abroad. We built a new welcome sign from start to finish, learned about chanting & meditation, had a cooking lesson with Dang, hitchhiking days, cut firewood, helped the new temple in the making, experienced a monks funeral, etc., all while making new friends with the volunteers & hosts. Thank you the farm family πŸͺ·πŸ€
