The farm felt like home during my stay. It's a beautiful place surrounded by nature, made even more special by lovely people. Things might feel a little unclear at first if a task hasn't been assigned yet but everything becomes smoother with time. The property is full of charm. People are always happy to help and encourage you to ask questions if you're unsure about anything. Since the place is self-sustaining, it does come with its own set of limitations, but that only adds to the unique experience. I'm so grateful and I truly enjoyed my time here. Thank you so much for everything!!

My experience at the farm was among one of my favorite experiences yet :) ughh The people, the other Worldpackers, the views, the farm. I cannot recommend this experience enough, with that in mind it's only what you create. The family will love and accept you as one of their own if you try. The beauty is unmatched but you have to go out and find it. the farm was my favorite part of this, but I worked by myself in the farm after hours.

My experience at the farm was great. The place itself is magic (immerse in wild nature) and so are the people who live there. I got the chance to work in the kitchen with a wonderful person, Kimi. If you are interested in the farm, you should definitely consider to go: you'll have plenty of time for practising with very special teachers at your side. Since I'm not interested, sometimes I honestly felt a bit bored after work, but that's the other side of the coin of living in such a remote place. All in all I'd higly recommend to go if you feel the call. Thank you all for the beautiful experience

The farm is a magical place that's been crafted and maintained by a community of passionate, hardworking, and open-hearted individuals. I've had the most beautiful experience volunteering here, and I feel so grateful for having had the opportunity to learn from, work for, and get to know everyone. I'll be recommending the farm to everyone I know, and I hope to see you guys again someday!

I stayed at the farm for two weeks and it quickly became one of the most meaningful parts of my travels. I met some of the best people—kind, inspiring souls who I now consider lifelong friends. The volunteer work involved a lot of gardening, and while some days were tough, it was always worth it. Maria and Regina are amazing women who lead a warm, knowledgeable team. Everyone was excited to learn about me and share their life on the farm. If you're looking for genuine connection and a strong sense of community, I highly recommend the farm.
