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.

Tommaso is one of the kindest and loveliest people I've ever met. He was super understanding when I felt sick and even took me to the hospital. I felt peaceful from day one. The tasks were clear and well organized and we were given proper tools. I loved working with the earth! The atmosphere is calm and full of good energy, with incredible sunsets. There is amazing food available for us to cook, super comfortable accommodation, bikes to explore and a flexible schedule. A beautiful experience and I'll definitely come back! Words are not enough. Long live the farm! ❤️

My experience at the farm was amazing. The schedule is respected, Tommy is a great host, and the work, harvesting or weeding, was something I really enjoyed. I learned a lot, ate healthily, and got along well with the other volunteers, who truly understood the spirit of volunteering. Tommy's passion for his project, is inspiring, and it was a pleasure to support him. If you're looking for a calm and healthy countryside routine, this is the place. Just note the internet can be unstable for remote work. I hope to return one day!

This was the best volunteering experience I've had yet. Everyone was so kind, Tommaso and the crew were very welcoming and taught me a lot. They put a lot of care into the farm and it shows. I made amazing friends here, the work was rewarding, and the farm is truly a special place. I miss it already & cant wait to come back! Highly recommend 🌱
