I had a great experience here. Andrea is super friendly and generous. He brought us out to eat several times, showed us around the neighboring towns, and even let us use his car. The living arrangements are nice and the animals are great too. As far as work, it's pretty relaxed during the week, but super busy on the weekends. Expect to work for the whole day on Saturdays. Communication was also a little difficult when it came to work tasks because of the language barrier. Andrea and his kids are amazing, though. They have become like family to me, and I was sad to say goodbye.

This experience was incredible! Andrea is very generous and wants to make this stay truly worthwhile. He let us take his car into neighboring towns during our downtime so we could see as much of the area as possible. The work was easy and simple for the most time. Saturdays are quite busy and hectic, but the rest of the week is typically pretty slow. There was some communication issues as not all expectations were clearly expressed at all times. We felt like he would forget to mention tasks to us, then get annoyed when we hadn't completed them. Overall, I'd highly recommend

I highly recommend this place to someone looking to reconnect with nature and enjoy a true family like experience. the farm Vesco is a wonderful place surrounded by animals 🥹. The host, Andrea, is a person I deeply admire, I have never met someone so hardworking and joyful. He has an amazing family and lots of friends , and included us in everything as if we were part of his family. I learned a lot about Italian culture, Andrea really makes sure you get to explore and enjoy your time there. Thank you 🥹 I remember my days in the farm as a time filled with love, peace and hospitality. 🫶🏻

Diana è una volontaria eccezionale sia per l’aiuto che ha dato per il podere ma soprattutto per il carattere positivo che ha saputo portare serenità sia con gli ospiti che con gli altri volontari che con la nostra famiglia. Speriamo di rivederla

This volunteer work has truly been the ideal experience I was hoping for. My goal was to work while learning about the local culture and exploring nearby cities, and from the very first day, I was able to learn about wines and various regional specialties from northern Italy. Andrea always helps us experience so many things — from local food to regional festivals. It has been such a valuable experience where I could work, travel, and learn about the culture at the same time. I highly recommend this volunteer program to anyone who wants to learn about Italian culture ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An unforgettable experience, no doubt! 🌟 Andrea and his family are truly wonderful people, we shared meals, parties, drinks, and so many moments together. I spent a fantastic week and I'm so happy to have met them. Thank you so much for welcoming me! The place is beautiful, the alpacas live freely, and the tasks are simple and easy to learn, with a lot of flexibility if something comes up. Also, if you have a driver's license, Andrea lets you use his car with no problem. Honestly, it's a little paradise!
