Description

Since the project has little to no commercial purpose, we tend to ask for a small contribution towards the food. Taking into account the fact that most of the products you can eat are from our own production. A unique opportunity to eat truly fresh and healthy food. This way, the project can continue to exist and we can welcome new volunteers every year and work together to build something beautiful.

I had a wonderful stay at the ecological farm. Gill is an exceptional host: warm, sociable, and truly makes you feel at home. I learned a lot about sustainable living and farming during my time there. Gill's passion for everything he does on the farm is very inspiring! The daily tasks were varied and fun. The farm itself is in a beautiful location, with stunning views and a peaceful, quiet atmosphere. Gill took me to visit nearby towns during my stay, which was a great way to explore the area. It's the perfect place to slow down and reconnect with nature, I highly recommend it! :)

Gill has worked hard to create a beautiful home/property and it was amazing to be able to spend time here and contribute to this special place. Gill is a very kind, patient, fun, and respectful person who is always willing to share his knowledge. The animals are gorgeous and well-loved. My tasks were always interesting and varied, and my agreed hours were always respected. If you enjoy nature, have a positive attitude and don't mind some hard work, and are interested in self-sustainable living, you will love this stay. I cannot recommend it highly enough 😊

It was an incredible experience! Gill is a kind and hospitable host, making me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. Some task require more physical work than other but it is very broad you will do many different things during your stay. I learned a great deal about sustainable living and zero-waste practices. Gill's commitment to eco-friendly farming techniques and a sustainable lifestyle was truly inspiring. The farm itself is a bit isolated, but you can explore cities like Florence or Rome in 1 or 3 hours. I recommend this experience to anyone, is amazing.

Volunteering on the farm was great:) I got to learn a lot about sustainable/natural living and got to contribute to it through my work. We always had the best and most fresh food. Gill was a great host and was very very hospitable making his home very welcoming. The work was reasonable but I enjoy working outside with my hands so it's probably different for everyone. I'd say the only downfall about it is that the location is very remote, so if you're not able to slow down and just be in nature with not much else, then this experience probably isn't for you. Overall a great/learning experience!
