We loved our time here! You're staying with a very nice family and they are super hospitable. The work is very diverse & you learn a lot about his garden and farming. A bonus is their property is absolutely stunning you won't want to leave when it's over.

En la finca estuve muy cortito tiempo y aprendí muchoooo. Fue una experiencia muy bonita y tranquila con la familia. Todas las preguntas que tenía con mucha disposición me las respondía Andrés, me mostro todo sobre su huerta, y como ha sido el proceso. Si quieres aprender sobre siembra, semilleros y plantas es un voluntariado ideal. Muy en contacto con la naturaleza. La finca es super agradable, el lugar donde se quedan los voluntariados son super cómodos. La familia te presta toda la disposición y confianza para que te sientas cómoda. Muchas gracias por todo, fue una semana muy linda 🌈🌈🌈🌈

Si quieres vivir una experiencia en el campo y a pleno contacto con la naturaleza, tienes que venir aquí. El lugar es hermoso y la familia es muy buena gente. Viví muy buenos momentos con Andrés, Nadia, su familia y también con los otros 2 voluntarios (Juan y Francisco) que ya considero amigos.

Andres y su linda familia nos recibieron muy amablemente. Nos dieron excelente acomodación y nos abrieron las puertas a su hermoso casa de adobe en la mitad de la naturaleza. Trabajando con Andres fue muy agradable! Nos enseñó mucho sobre como trabajar con la tierra de manera 100 % organico, artesanalmente e alternativa.Los oficios en la finca fueron interesantes, variados y dejan tiempo para explorar los pueblos y paisajes de la region. Hemos tenido muchos momentos muy bonitos con la familia y con anna (otra voluntaria). Queremos dar las gracias a Andres por este experiencias!Juan y Francis
