The experience

Water the plants, talk to the plants, Dig and prepare new gardens. Collecting dead trees that have been cut down. work with cement if you want. There is a stone house to rebuild for which i could use some help. cementing, of gathering rocks from the nearby fields.

Program Details

To work in the garden, start early in the summer, 7 o clock we start to beat the heat. and during the day you keep an eye on the plants and water them if needed. and in the evening again. so when you take this role, be really aware that this is more then watering plants 1 time , and you are done.... not at all, its constantly keeping an eye on the garden and water the plants immediately if needed. dont wait another hour because you feel like it...


Activities & Shift

5 hour shifts, just do the best you can. if you are in-experienced, that is totally oke! But be open to learn the right techniques.... watering plants wit the hot sun above you involves a certain way to do it to avoid destroying the plants.

Some people find watering plants boring. They are right.
So please remember: Its a farm, not an amusement park.


Rules

No smoking in the gardens or forest, due to fire hazards.
Be on time in the morning.

Make as much political incorrect jokes as you can. :))

The nickname of this farm is "Finca FAFO" (Safety rules are not optional.)
