This place is truly a jem for nature lovers. You're fully immersed in the jungle. The work is tough but rewarding, nothing impossible. You have plenty of time to enjoy the place Elmer is a kind and patient host, and a very good cook as well. I also learned a lot about the Costa Rican biodiversity with him. Just be prepared for farm work, seeing lots of snakes and spiders, and bring long socks for boots!

The farm was a great experience for me. This project is not for people that don't love hard work and nature. You will be outside, you will get wet and dirty and it is hard work sometimes. Tasks can include raking, shoveling, planting, feeding animals and carrying clean drinking water down from the main road. The experience of sleeping outside in jungle is priceless and being surrounded by wildlife is magical. Bring tall socks, water shoes, quick dry EVERYTHING, first aid kit, wet and dry bags, sunscreen, and a solar charger. Elmer is a great host. I will definitely return someday!

Work: it is more physical labor but nothing to strenuous. We raked paths, feed chickens, and over all helped keep the area functional. There is a reason please keep mentioning tall socks. Bring them Life: the town is ab 30 minutes walk away BRING ENOUGH CASH there is no ability to get any here. Idk what enough for you will be. But more than you think probably. Living: I thought the living quarters were clean, nice and I honestly enjoyed staying there 12/10 would come back again

Being immersed in the jungle is an unforgettable experience. Elmer creates a welcoming environment that makes you feel like a part of the farm team. The work can be challenging (e.g. carrying 20 to 40 kg logs from the forest), but at 4 hours of work per day, there is ample time for rest and river enjoyment. In February, Drake Bay is very hot, so light, quick drying clothing is recommended. Long, thin socks for the boots are a good idea as mentioned. It is a wonderful feeling socializing after sweaty work with your fellow volunteers and I have made some great friends.

The people running this place and the other volunteers made me feel that sense of community I was looking for on this trip. This place is really in the middle of the jungle. You will see big and small bugs everywhere and will be bitten a lot. They have lots of little dogs that come and go from the property and you will also see them on the beach because they also run Drake's bay inn. There is also two awesome big dogs that stay at the farm. The work was fair but be prepared for manual labor like hiking through the jungle with wood. Bring long socks. Beware: the chickens will wake you early.

The farm is a special place in the middle of the jungle. Elmer, Neher, Pana and the other volunteers were all very nice and helpful. Be prepared to find your way around the first few days and get used to the conditions. After that, time will fly by and you will become part of the community. The time there showed me life in and with the jungle. I learned a lot. Thanks for everything!

Mes mots ne suffiront jamais pour décrire tout ce que j'ai pu vivre à the farm ! La durée de mon séjour était d'une semaine et finalement je l'ai prolongé deux semaines de plus! Une expérience authentique ou j'y ai laissé une partie de mon cœur. Une cuisine traditionnelle exceptionnelle au feu de bois mais surtout des personnes incroyables qui font de ce lieu ce qu'il est aujourd'hui c'est à dire unique. Milles merci pour ces magnifiques souvenirs que vous m'avez donné. À bientôt 🥰

Nuestra experiencia en la granja fue genial, es un lugar increible donde conectar con la naturaleza y relajarte. El trabajo es interesante y divertido tambien pudimos hacer varias filmaciones del lugar. Es más al momento de escribir la reseña seguimos ahi ya que hemos alargado nuestra estancia! Recomiendo a todo el mundo que quiera descubrir la jungla y ayudar en un gran proyecto que vengan para la granja! Y la cocina de Elmer es espectacular!

Staying at the farm made me grow as a person. It provided the right amount of challenge and physical exercise but also absolutely beautiful scenery. Being one with nature and surrounded by wildlife it was much more rewarding than actually visiting a national park ;) I would recommend this experience to all who love nature and like a good savage and authentic local farm experience.
