I had the most amazing time at the farm. We became a family. Elmer is a brilliant host who cares so much about the space and about every volunteer having an enjoyable experience. This was the start of my travelling journey and it set the bar high. You should know going into this as a volunteer that the work can be physically demanding but so rewarding. If you're willing to get stuck your efforts are appreciated. The farm feels like the start of something special. If you can do any of the tours they offer the night tour with Elmer is a must and at least have one meal of Elmer cooking!

I enjoyed my stay at the Farm. Really got to connect to Nature. Had a lot of free time to meditate & do yoga. For work you mainly feed the chickens or rake the leaves so not to bad. You do have to buy your own food so be aware, but there is bananas and plantains they you can welcome yourself to. If you would like. To use the Wi-Fi it is a $1 a day. Elmer is so sweet and is a great host. Don't hesitate to ask him any questions if your ever confused. But honestly this was my first time outta the country and my stay here was lovely I definitely can see myself returning in the future!

I had a great overall first trip. If you are not a nature lover, I don't recommend this trip. And if so, this will be a perfect trip for you. Elmer is so sweet & caring to us. The tasks were not too hard; the heat is what makes the work heavy. I really enjoyed my stay & I will definitely return. I would advise to either fly directly into Drake Bay if possible. If you are flying from San Jose, the bus to Sierpe leaves at 8am from Tracopa train station, & once you get to Sierpe you take a boat to Drake Bay & then taxi to the jungle. Prepare to cross over water to get to the farm. Great trip!

La experiencia en Río la granja para mí fue increíble, fui enormemente feliz con la vida allí! El lugar es muy especial, en plena jungla, rodeado de naturaleza y tanto Elmer como el resto de voluntarios lo hicieron sentir un cálido hogar del que no me quería ir y al que espero regresar! Elmer fue muy flexible y atento con nosotros, es un gran cocinero y su proyecto es impresionante. Voy a extrañar mucho el día a día allí, el despertar escuchando a la naturaleza, ir a la cocina y compartir con la gente, refrescarnos en el río, el trabajo, los animales, ir al pueblo, caminar por las playas.

It was a unique experience, the place is gorgeous. Living in the jungle can be challenging but in the end you come out more than satisfied. Most of the work was sweeping up leaves, but also changing the water for the chickens, collecting eggs, feeding the pig, fetching water... Elmer is very helpful, just ask. I think it's important to know some things before arriving: if you want to cook with gas you have to pay 5 dollars, otherwise with fire it's free. Also, if you want to use wifi you have to pay 1 dollar per day. Bananas are free, also some eggs depending on availability.

Estar en Río la granja fue una experiencia enriquecedora. A pesar del miedo que le tenía a casi todo pase momentos muy agradables y me sentí como en casa . Lo recomiendo mucho. ☺️

I had an incredible two weeks here. Elmer and Co made me feel incredibly welcome and like part of the family. The farm is really beautiful right on the edge of jungle and on your days off you can go to the town and beaches which are great. The work can be a little arduous at time but nothing too difficult and you may be woken up early by the chickens. It was overall a great experience and I wish I could have stayed a little longer. I can't wait to go back some time in the future.

El lugar es muy bonito, lleno de naturaleza. Las actividades que realizamos no fueron pesadas y fueron las horas que se acordaron. Me gustó mucho estar ahí, aprendí mucho de cocina con Elmer. La mayoría de los huéspedes y las personas que estaban al mismo tiempo que nosotras fueron muy agradables e hicieron de nuestra estancia más linda. Las playas que están cerca de la granja están súper bellas, súper recomendadas para los días libres, además hay muchos tours que se pueden hacer. Todo estuvo muy bien a excepción de que se nos desaparecieron algunas cosas.

I had a good time! I got to meet some of the locals and try restaurants and foods. I learned how to make tostons and learned Spanish words for some herbs and foods. The beach is a mile away from the hostel. It rained a ton but it was so healing to sleep on the platform while it rained, read, and write when work was over. Feeding the chickens was very fun too. The dogs aren't mean.

I was there in October during the off-season. I spent almost the whole two weeks alone as a volunteer. You are very connected to the chickens, dogs and nature. You live in the middle of the jungle and can enjoy all the benefits. I had enough time to explore my own things. Please don't forget to bring your own food. As the journey is strenuous, you'll be glad if you don't have to walk 40 minutes to the supermarket every day.
