We had such an amazing experience at the farm! Ore and Eli have a beautiful home with lots to learn from, they made us feel welcome immediately. The work was fun and enlightening. Our experience in Arraial would not have been the same without their kindness and guidance. Muito obrigada!!

I already felt a great energy when I got in touch with Ore, he directed me, suggesting the best and most comfortable way to get to Arraial d'ajuda in my full day trip from north of Bahia, guiding me through the smoothest path I could walk through to get to the farm. I can say that the stuff it's just fantastic, trustworthy and easy going, ready to teach you everything you need to know to be able to do your daily task as better as you can! Ready to help me at any time getting inside Brazilian culture and language, making sure everyone always felt comfortable with it!

Me senti muito bem durante minha passagem pelo sítio! O espaço é lindo e muito bem localizado, próximo ao centro e a praia. As atividades são tranquilas e variadas: trabalhei com as plantas, também ajudei em algumas atividades de manutenção e até extraímos azeite de dende! Os horários são flexíveis. A convivência com os outros voluntários foi ótima e os anfitriões Eli e Ore são muito queridos! O único ponto a melhorar seria a barraca que é disponibilizada, que não é tão confortável, mas já possuem planos para melhorar esse ponto. Resumindo, recomendo muito 🥰

Minha estadia nos o sítio foi incrível. O lugar é mágico, no meio da floresta e bem perto do centro. Tem tudo o que você precisa se ama a natureza. Ore e Eli foram pacientes e entusiasmados para me explicar muitas coisas sobre o PANC, as plantas de canteiro e as abelhas. Sou muito grata por tudo que aprendi e espero um dia retornar a este lindo projeto que vocês têm em Arraial. Obrigada!
