Couple/2friends wanted for small organic farm, DIY in rural Italy

We truly couldn't have asked for a better first Worldpackers experience. From the get go, Annemarie and Tom were extremely welcoming and provided us with a very cozy stay (I had some of the best night sleeps here). The work we did was very fulfilling, especially since they made sure to give us projects we could finish during our stay. We were assigned a variety of tasks and learned so much from each of them, especially in terms of sustainability (i.e. composting, dead hedge building). Our hours were very much honored and we also had some of the best meals ever thanks to Tom!! :-)

Our experience with Tom and Annemarie was truly exceptional. From the second we arrived, our hosts made us feel at home and part of the family. We were provided with our own room and bathroom. During our stay, we had the chance to work many different jobs, from helping build garden beds to painting rooms to helping with general things around the house. Tom and Annemarie were patient, kind, and incredible teachers. We learned about proper garden maintenance, composting systems (multiple), and numerous ways to run a sustainable and ethical household.

This was our first Worldpacker's experience and it exceeded every expectation! Tom and Annemarie were so welcoming and the accommodation is fantastic. We loved getting to work with them on everything from gardening to sanding and painting rooms for some remodel work. The food was SO good and sitting down for dinner with them every night was a highlight of the experience. Everything was perfect and I would have stayed forever if I could! Cannot recommend this experience more — apply apply apply!

It was a really beautiful experience. Let's start from the beginning: we met annamarie through a call and with whatsapp we created a group to organize arrival and work. Arriving at La the home we settled in the room, beautiful, clean and spacious! We also met Sam and Tom (who is an exceptional cook) and had dinner. Every day we were explained the work for the morning, while the afternoons remained free so that we could visit everything around. Ten days flew by. I myself would do this experience again a couple of times! 10 points to Ann who is really an exceptional woman :) (sorry for my English)

It was the first time for me and Susan and we couldn't ask for a better experience! Annemarie and Tom are truly kind and open minded people, they welcomed us and they made sure that we felt like at home! Tom is also an amazing cooker 🤩 Annemarie explained us a lot of things about farming and nature and we worked most of the time outside in their beautiful land! Work was fine I think, of course it's more hard then sending emails sitted in the office but it's even more rewarding once you finish it! 😊

We couldn't have expected anything better than we have had along with Annamarie, Tom and their lovely son Sam. They were such a gentle and respectful people and they were always making us feel at home. Tom is really good at cooking and they made every dinner unique. We had the chance to share with them and those will be moments to remember. About the job, there are different things to do and we enjoyed doing them all. We worked Monday to Friday (am job) and we had all the afternoons and also weekends to chill around. We highly recommend this volunteer job. We'll back if we can.

Volunteering at the home was such a nice experience. Annemarie and Tom are a kind couple with a beautiful child Sam, he makes dinners such a lovely time. Because of the weather we did outside and inside jobs, both of them very hardworking but rewarding at the same time. We loved our accommodation and felt very welcomed by the family.

Our time at the home was very pleasant. Tom, Annemarie and Sam are a very cute family that will treat you like a friend in their house. The daily tasks are not fixed in stone, it will depend on the weather and what it needs to be done so you have to stay flexible but in general the work is enjoyable and they give you the proper tools and instructions. Tom's cooking is very good and healthy and we always shared dinner at 6 pm. The room was nice and cozy, do expect some insects since it is on a farm but everything is clean and nice.
