Volunteer at a coffee farm while taking a two week Spanish course

I highly recommend anyone to volunteer at the farm. I really enjoyed my time here, the farm is lovely, you learn a lot about sustainability, permaculture and of course the Spanish was so helpful for me as a beginner and for higher levels too. Klara is a patient and very knowledgeable teacher. Her, Agustin, their son and the perritos make you feel very welcome. The work is enjoyable on the farm as you have a range of things to do from washing coffee beans, painting, gardening. They make such wholesome food too. Muchas gracias por todo!! And for taking care of me when I was sick.

Klara and Agustin are great people. They treated me like family. I spend two weeks working a couple hours on the farm and helping with other things that had to be done. The place and the whole area around is very beautiful and you can easily walk to town if you want to. Klara cooks delicious food and coffee. During the days I learned a lot and in the evening we always had good conversations and stories to tell each other. There are also two very nice dogs and one goat. I would recommend it and I also want to say thank you again to the family. I had a great time and I will miss you all.

The best volunteering experience that I've ever had. Klara and her family were amazing. The farm is beautiful and a great place to learn about coffee. Klara's spanish classes were extremely helpful and she helped me improve my spanish immensely. She is a great spanish teacher and I highly recommend staying here if you are trying to improve your spanish. The home cooked food was delicious as well as the coffee. Such a great experience!

My experience at Karla and Augustine's farm house was unforgettable! They are so kind, warm and welcoming and I truly felt at home when I was there. I loved learning about and helping with the coffee production, improving my Spanish, getting to know their lovely family and spending time in one of the most beautiful places in Colombia! I also haven't been able to stop thinking about Karla's freshly baked bread, it was sooo delicious. Jerico is also a beautiful town - I will definitely be back sometime in the future! Thank you again for an amazing experience, highly recommend!

My week with Klara and her family was an unforgettable, authentic experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to volunteer. The volunteering jobs were different every day, and I enjoyed every task. In the afternoon, we had our Spanish classes which went at the pace of the student, and encouraged us to stretch our abilities. I learnt so much, and would recommend this learning environment in comparison to a city classroom! The most memorable part for me was how accepted we felt into the family, sharing dinner and having wonderful conversations over coffee and cake!

J'ai passé une formidable semaine à la ferme Sagardo, un lieu magnifique et relaxant. Klara, Augustin leur fils et leur chien m'ont chaleureusement accueilli. Jai logé dans une petite cabane très sympathique. Durant la semaine, j'ai réalisé différents petits travaux, de la récolte de café à des petit travaux de peinture. J'ai également eu la chance d'observer et d'apprendre certaines étapes de la fabrication de café. Chaque matin j'ai également eu droit à 2heires de cours d'espagnol, ce qui m'a permis de bien progresser. Klara est une exellente cuisinière et les repas étaient délicieux.

Mein Aufenthalt auf der the farm war wunderschön. Die finca ist wirklich traumhaft schön! Dadurch das wir immer zusammen gegessen haben hat man sich wie ein Teil der Familie gefühlt. Die Familie und auch die Tiere sind alle sehr lieb. Das Essen war auch sehr lecker! Ins gesamt habe ich mich super wohl gefühlt und man kann mit Klara über alles sprechen, man hatte trotzdem auch genug Privatsphäre also eine super gute Mischung um sich wohl zu fühlen. Die Arbeit war sehr flexibel und man konnte sich seine Stunden selber aufteilen. Auch der Spanisch Unterricht war sehr gut und hilfreich.
