I enjoyed this volunteering so much. The family are the most welcome and so heartwarming . I learned a lot about coffee and did a lot of different things at the farm. Everything was amazing and I enjoyed it a lot! I highly recommend this experience☀️

This was my first place to volunteer in Perú. I recommend it for the warm attitude and understanding of Victor and his family, and the variety of activities. The communication was just in Spanish and helped me in my continuous process of practicing and improving it. This place made me accomplish the dream of working with organic coffee - going through all the steps of processing it. There were various activities almost all days, like it is usually in a family farm - processing cane, constructions, cooking, etc. I was happy with the family sharing the village fiesta, walks, and motorbike class!
