The Experience

We are turning an ancient farm in Normandy into a guest house for small groups willing to practice activities while enjoying the peace of nature and experiencing a way-of-life respectful of others. We need help to take care of our garden forest and make the outside space comforting and nurturing to our future guests : gardening, painting, organizing paths between areas, trimming, mulching, and we will be happy to exchange views and experience

The stay at the farm was a very pleasant experience. Cecile is an excellent host, she welcomed me with generosity and hospitality. The tasks were very affordable and I learned a lot. The facilities are very comfortable and beautiful. I was lucky enough to share the volunteering with other very nice and friendly volunteers! A very nice community is created there :) (I definitely recommend it!)

Cécile and her family welcomed us in the best possible way and helped us with everything we needed. We shared great moments with the other volunteers, learned a lot about many things, and contributed our small part to their project (the tasks were easy and fun).

It was an amazing experience to stay at Cécile's place. Everyone had an own bedroom and I felt like working together with other Worldpackers made an impact for the progress for the farm and garden and building a Permaculture.

Pasamos una hermosa estadía, Cecile y Demian fueron muy buenos anfitriones. Los trabajos que hemos hecho estuvieron bien. Nos conectamos mucho con la naturaleza. Cecile me ayudó con clases de francés, además de cocinar una cena de bienvenida cada vez que llegaban nuevos voluntarios. Gracias Cecile por confiar en nosotros ❤️ Jodie es lo mas lindo del lugar 😁❤️
