How to work on ecological projects in Italy?

Enjoying getting your hands dirty is the first requirement for those that want to work abroad on farms. Working on permaculture sites in the famous little towns of Italy requires commitment, willingness to learn and a passion for nature. To apply, just tell the host a little bit more about yourself, your goals and how you can help. The accommodation is provided for by the project in exchange for a few hours of work.
