I really enjoyed my time on the farm with Rachel and Phil. The surrounding area is beautiful and we had a clear schedule during the week. Some things to note are that that there isn't really a living space you can use apart from the dining room, and also no lunch is provided on weekends.

I really enjoyed staying with Rachel and Phillip. Their property is beautiful and the work is great if you like being outside and getting your hands dirty. We got to explore Avignon, Arles and Saint Remy during out short stay, all using public transport, which was a big bonus. I would note that they only provide cereal and milk for breakfast and any other breakfast items you need to buy yourself, they also don't offer lunch on weekends. There is a supermarket about a 35 minute walk away so it's not a big deal, but a good thing to be aware of. :)

This experience was amazing! Learned so much about permaculture! The nearby towns are amazing and Eyragues is lovely. The bus station and town is within 25 minute walking distance or less! Things to note: they expect you will be gone on the weekends, you are not always allowed to use the kitchen, and they don't have bikes to use. Also the tent is really nice for sleep, but not great during the day because of the heat. This family is lovely and the work hours were very respected! The food was SUPER good and we ate a lot of items harvested from the garden. Thank you so so much Rachel and Phil!!!

As a first time worldpacker, I had a great time volunteering at Mas de the project! Phil and Rachel are very welcoming and very open to answering any questions especially about permaculture and as a result I learnt so much about different sustainable farming practises! Their home is located in a beautiful part of France and is very well connected to other cities which are definitely worth exploring. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience!
