Really nice time I had in thethethe farm. The host is a really nice person, i mostly spent time in cleaning up the garden area and connecting with the nature. But I felt a little bit pressurized with the work. I would have continued to work and helped to make up the place slowly . The host was very kind to prepare for me food most of the time.. the place is a good place surrounded by nature and local the farmgrowing the farmvegetables.

We had a great time here, its nice to be in touch with nature. Working on the farmcan be some times hard physical work but also rewarding the hours you can work your can plan them yourself a little bit which is nice. There are a lot of animals on the farmso you never have to feel lonely. Thank you poobala!

The farmis the perfect place to start your Indian adventure. It is a place that transmits peace where people welcome you warmly, where you can eat typical and fresh food and where you can learn permaculture. We were here only a week but every day was full of emotions. We met many people who gave us the opportunity to participate in the puja. Poobala is an excellent host, welcoming and present. Talking to him was enriching, he made us discover many things about India. Thanks for the hospitality, we hope to be able to return one day!
