Help with the daily activities on the farm in Tuscany

My stay with Max, his dogs and a group of wonderfull people was just amazing. Yes there is a lot of work to be done every day but the social contact, home made food and Tuscany nature all around the place more than makes up for the sometimes hard work. Max showed and explained every task that had to be done so there was no confusion. Every possible problem was resolved calmely in a constructive maner. It is wonderful to see how much Max cares about all of his animals and the environment. For the time I spent at Maxes farm I felt like I found a new home in the middle of a Tuscany forrest.

Had an amazing week here! I had the chance to do different tasks everyday and through the process, learn so much about growing your own food. The accommodation was cosy and it was nice sharing meals with Max and other volunteers over meal times in the common spaces which always had a warm atmosphere. Max also has four of the friendliest dogs who are such great company! Overall a great getaway for reconnecting with nature and learning more about permaculture.

I loved my stay at the project. Max is an incredibly nice guy and a great host. We had a lot of fun together. He taught us everything we needed to know and got into detail so we'd fully understand. He'd always played Musik during work so it was more fun. There was always enough delicious food though breakfast could maybe be a bit improved. I really enjoyed my stay, it is hard but fun work and you'll have a cozy place to stay. I felt welcomed the first second I met him, seriously recommend!

The experience at the project eco-village was incredible; Max taught me many new things. I learned how to take care of chickens and ducks (who are free to roam in the open fields), how to chop wood and cut branches, how to give the right nutrients to the soil and plants. We also created fruit preserves and delicious jams. Max teaches very carefully everything in detail, but then also gives the volunteers great autonomy, which I really appreciated. He is a very fun guy and you will pass wonderful time at the project farm. It's also a great opportunity to learn about permaculture and nature!

We definitely enjoyed staying there. The tasks are very flexible and you can easily communicate which things you are most interested in, to learn as much as possible. We also had a fun time socialising with the host, other volunteers and locals outside the working hours. It was great to cook & live together. Plus it's a really beautiful farm and surrounding, great for exploring nature! :)

Max was a very good and understanding host. We had a good time here but the only problem was that the place is very remote with close to zero public transport which makes it difficult if you come here to work and also explore the places around. Apart from this, the farm express very nice. The post mentions 4 hours of work everyday but it was actually 6 hours and even after that you could not go anywhere outside. We had to cut short our trip because of these reasons and Max was very understanding about this. In our short stay here we learnt a lot about what is permaculture and had fun.

My experience at Pontremoli was good. Max is very friendly and accommodating. We had a good time at the farm learning a lot of new things. Max offered us a clean and well equipped place to stay. Pros: learn about farming, live in the middle of a forest, interact with many animals. Cons: the place is quite far from the city and therefore you cannot really plan other activities by yourself during the stay. But on the other hand, Max understood that we also wanted to see the city and do other things and therefore let us cut short our stay for the last 2 days so that we can do other activities
