It has been a magical experience for me, and I am sure, also for future volunteers who want a bit of new perspectives, rural immersion and simply, some fresh air. I have been at the farm for 2 weeks, during which I have cleared the garden, bonded with dogs & cats and enjoyed all variations of pasta. With clear guidance, daily works were mostly goal-driven, so I had great flexibility in how to finish the tasks. I admire Elisa's knowledge in running the farm, and her whole group of friends who are always there to help out. I am surely gonna miss this place so hard…

My brother and I had an amazing time during our two-week stay at the farm. Elisa was always super kind, and her cooking skills honestly left us speechless. We learned a lot about the intelligence of nature both animals and plants - and what it takes to care for a place like this. Eating straight from the garden and connecting with new souls in the local language made it all even more special. We felt safe, welcome, and loved the flexibility we had. Totally recommend this experience to anyone!!!! :)

I absolutely loved volunteering at Elisa's place. It's surrounded with nature and full of the cutest animals. The work was very fair and hours were always respected. Elisa is the sweetest person ever and cooks incredible meals. You have plenty of free time to spend relaxing in her garden or exploring the surrounding area which is beautiful. If you don't mind getting your hands dirty in the garden, coming across an occasional insect or not having phone reception for a while I would definitely recommend this experience!

This experience was truly wonderful! Elisa is very kind and treated me really well. She cooks deliciously! Meals are mostly made with veggies from the garden, and the juices are amazing! Work depends on her needs, so it can vary between outdoor tasks and indoor help. You have a lot of independence: you count your own hours and are free afterward. I slept in my own room, which had no door, but I still had privacy. The place is in the woods, so expect spiders, flies, and mosquitoes. Elisa's dogs and cats are the sweetest, you'll love them!

Elisa é uma pessoa fascinante, sempre muito disposta a ensinar e ajudar no que eu não sabia. quando cheguei tinha muita coisa a ser feita e o trabalho foi bem pesado, mas sempre muito bem remunerado com as refeições que Elisa fazia, sempre muito gostosas e produzidas na própria horta onde trabalhávamos. foi uma ótima primeira experiência, sou muito grato a tudo que aprendi na casa.
