I'm leaving this volunteering experience with so much more than I arrived with. Wanessa is a warm and strong woman, passionate about equality and empowering woman. She's happily shared her love and knowledge of sustainable living, health, cooking, yoga, and farming with us volunteers. All the while she's treated us like members of her family, and gone above and beyond to include us in experiences to show us local life and culture. I feel privileged to have met her, and hope to return in the future!

I've had an incredible time at the farm. The whole entire experience was very fulfilling. Wanessa is an amazing Host and really cares about the people she brings to her place. She inspires me and taught me a lot of things about farming. We went to many beautiful places and had a lot of conversations I will never forget. I'm so grateful to be able to experience something like this. Thank you again!

Wanessa was an incredible host, always thinking about us and what we could do both in helping out on the farm and time off during our stay. I gained a lot of knowledge about growing and cooking with vegetables & fruit, which I will carry into my own garden when the time comes. I loved the area and the swimming spots are incredible! A very enjoyable week, great food, we are glad we found this farm! Thank you for having us Wanessa :) - Ryan
