I had a wonderful time at the Center! Simon and Jessica are amazing hosts who made me feel like part of the family from day one. The homemade food was delicious, they even took me out to eat, and we always had a great time playing board games after meals. Since I stayed for a month, I also had the chance to develop my own project building a rocket oven — thank you, Simon, for the trust and opportunity! P.S.: I'll really miss going to bed with a smile after winning chess games against Simon 😆

I had a great time at Simon's and Jessica's place! The working time was very reasonable and Simon ensured, that the tasks don't become repetetive or boring. On top, Simon took the time to explain the why and what while giving practical advice, making this voluneering a great experience for learning about various topics: gardening, permaculture, animals and most of all practical tipps and tricks for handywork and life on a farm. I can only recommend visiting them and will give a final advice to those of you who do: Working as a team to win against Simon in Monopoly is a valid strategy. Thanks:)

I stayed 2 weeks with Simon and Jessica in the Center. They are a lovely family enjoying simple life in the nature. Work was diverse like paintaing, wood construction, planting, gardening, feeding animals, cooking... Simon is patient and happy to teach you. Lots of break to relax, enjoy homemade fresh ginger beer and play games. Food was delicious and fresh from the garden or local market. The place is beautiful and comfortable, surrounded by mountains and close to the center. Amazing stay! Enjoy!

We had a great time learning about permaculture farming. We were up around 7am each morning to feed animals and and eat breakfast together. Building, weeding, painting were some tasks with homemade kombucha breaks around 11am, lunch around 12:30 and then finished for the day unless on evening animal or dinner duty. The hosts were great and super welcoming, the pets are lovely and time explore the region. Card games together were a common things and the food we ate was great. We really enjoyed the experience!

Staying at the Center was an amazing experience, Simon and Jessica provided amazing support and were extremely welcoming, something which was very important to me as this was my first volunteering experience. During my time here I learnt many useful life skills such as plumbing, electrical work, welding and roofing. The food was also very good, with a wide variety of types of meals. In addition to how nice the actual volunteer site is, the town is very close to the farm and is full of very friendly people. Thank you Simon and Jessica for providing me with such an amazing experience!

writing Daniels review here as unfortunately we didn't get to it in time to publish the normal way.
Daniel was with us for close to 4 months. During that time he was up for helping with all asked of him and saying yes to every opportunity to try new things like entering a triathlon when he hadn't ridden a bike much before. We greatly appreciated his help and enjoyed having him around. Highly recommended.
