Being back in this magnificent place fills my heart with happiness. Tommy is an incredible human being, deeply passionate about what he has built. Here, I learned so much about fruits, vegetables, planting and harvesting techniques, and about sustainable, family-run agriculture done with care. If you're looking for peace, learning, and great company, this is the right place. Thank you for welcoming me once again, Tommy. There are bikes available so you can explore around easily, hot showers and the place is very organized with confortable bed and food provided is delicious A big hug Tommy🤗

I had an amazing experience here. Tommy is a great host and super laid back. I loved working out in the fields and learning how to harvest different crops. The work hours are great and you get the weekends off. I was even able to take a day trip to Switzerland. The house is also very big and nice, and the other volunteers were lovely.

This was an incredible experience! Tommy is very kind and understanding. The accommodations are very clean and nice (plus they have heating!), there is always plenty of food, and the hours are always respected! We only work in the morning and the work is fun. I've learned a lot about how various plants grown and I love being able to eat fresh produce that's grown right outside. The BEST experience!

My second time at the farm just made me remember why I wanted to come back! Working in a farm that respects nature and the environment is just the base of this great project, that also gives you the opportunity of meeting and living with people from all over the world with different backgrounds but that are there for the same reasons: helping, learning and having a good quality time. Grazie Tommy for hosting this amazing volunteer project and I hope to go back again in the future!
