The Experience

Our farm is dedicated to preserving and sharing the art of fermentation, especially traditional rice yeast and fermented teas. Participants become part of our daily rhythm—helping with general maintenance, assisting in fermentation processes, and supporting the upkeep of our communal spaces. But this is also a place of cultural exchange. Volunteers are encouraged to help our team and local children improve their practical English.

I had a great one-week experience on this farm. Tuan and Dat, their family, and friends were incredibly kind and welcoming. I even got to attend a wedding, which was an unforgettable experience. I learned so much about Vietnamese culture, food, and daily life. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who wants an authentic, warm, and cultural experience.

I had the most amazing time at the lodge! Tuan & Dat were great hosts: I stayed in my own comfortable small house at the farm, they introduced me to almost every Vietnamese dish and fruit and to all their friends, neighbours and family. I got to know the culture, the food, and daily life in Vietnam better here than anywhere else during my trip! We made the lodge, I helped at the farm with planting and cooking , learned English with the local children, we sang a lot of karaoke and played fun board games. We also went to the museum of ethnic groups in Vietnam! 100% recommend!

I stayed in the lodge one week and really enjoyed the time. I got to know how life is in a small village and what tasks there are at the everyday life in a farm. There was always something new to discover and to do. I even made my own the lodge step by step. I also had a lot of free time, where I played pingpong. Tuan and Dat were great host. We had a lot of fun together. For example at playing cards, learning some Vietnamese words or helping in the garden. It was no problem that I'am vegetarian, because they always cooked freshly and I got to know a lot of Vietnamese food.

We spent a wonderful week at the lodge!! We learned a lot about the lodge, different vegetables and fruits, rice wine and rice yeast, and about the spiritual rituals of the region. We felt very welcome and well looked after right from the start. Playing and laughing together was such a joy!

An unforgettable and truly authentic experience at the lodge. Tuan welcomed us like family and introduced us to real rural life: picking and fermenting the lodge, learning how the lodge-rice wine is made (with tastings!), helping local kids with English, and joining beautiful lunar traditions at local temples. Village life was peaceful, the dogs were the sweetest, and people were incredibly warm and helpful. If you are looking for an authentic, grounding, culturally rich experience rather than a typical “task-based volunteer job,” this is the place. I cannot recommend it enough.
