Program Details

We love to host active and outdoorsy people, curious and involved, and with love for the rural life. We need help feeding hens, composting, harvesting, planting, weeding, watering, both in our garden and vineyard. These activities will be done as a team, with clear instructions but also a space for you to create and suggest. We expect punctuality, commitment, proactivity and appreciate good listeners. You will be in the outdoors, in a beautiful place, doing meaningful things. In a place that exists thanks to the effort of many people who came before you. And we appreciate those who care, and want to leave their footprint here.

Activities & Shift

Morning shifts start at 8am until 10am and are about composting, feeding hens and changing their water, weeding, maybe helping a bin in the kitchen and making sure the common areas you use, are clean and tidy.
Afternoon shift is from 5 to 8pm will be more about watering, harvesting, planting, maybe continue with weeding, collecting the eggs and feeding hens again.
