My experience at the farm was beautiful. The host is very friendly and the other employees are great, too. The farm is sooooo beautiful! The work is simple; a bit physically demanding, but not strenuous. We start every day with feeding the animals, then we are assigned some tasks, after finishing we all make/eat lunch together, and the rest of the day is free! I really enjoyed the Ticino River, sunbathing in the hammock, and eating gelato in Abbiategrasso. The work shows every step of farming process, which I think is truly beautiful to be apart of. Thank you, Tommaso :) Good memories

This is by far one of the best volunteers I've been. The property is clean, well organised, and they teach you all you need to know for the tasks. The farm has a great location, so there are plenty of places you can visit during your time off. Be prepared for the hot temperatures during summer.

My time at the farm has been great! I really loved it there and I got to work along with amazing volunteers. Tommaso and the other employees of the farm (Tania, Giorgio and Dembo) are really incredible people, super nice and fun to be around. They all contributed to making my stay one of the best. The work is easy and the hours respected. I even feel like sometimes we weren't doing enough when I look at all the great things we had at the farm. We have bikes there and the city and train station are close. The nature is also really great and there is a lot to explore.

We had a fantastic time here and highly recommend it! Tommy was very welcoming, our room was great, and the work—like feeding animals and picking vegetables—was enjoyable. With clear hours (7–11am), we had plenty of free time to visit the Ticino River or Abbiategrasso. Shared lunches with other volunteers created a lovely community, and weekends off let us explore places like Lake Como and Verona. It was a special experience we'll truly miss!

This was a perfect experience. Tommy is a lovely host, super kind and thoughtful. Everything is always fully communicated and he is happy to help with anything. The work is rewarding, enjoyable, well-structured, and never exceeds the agreed hours. We would work in the mornings, leaving afternoons free. The location was ideal for weekend travel or for enjoying the nearby river and town. Facilities were excellent, we had spacious rooms and a well-stocked kitchen- mostly with fresh fruit and veg from the farm! I'll miss this place and highly recommend it to anyone wishing to visit Italy.
