Casale Il Sughero
In addition to providing rural hospitality and natural agriculture, we are also a cultural association with which we continuously experiment with alternative living.
Living in the countryside is a real test, it can be hard and fascinating at the same time. We have profoundly changed our lives by leaving the city and deciding to live in a healthy, critical and non-consumerist way. It takes strength and courage! This is why we chose Southern Italy and the Mediterranean coast and we have a great time there!
Israelis and Swiss are not welcome here because we are on the side of the weak.

About the experience in: Vibonati, Italy
Spain
Its been a lovely experience. They are a wonderful family and I felt comfortable and welcomed. Although some tasks are physically demanding, the work itself is straightforward. The place and sorroundings are gorgeous, but getting around can be difficult due to its isolated location and limited transportation. However the family always offered me a lift whenever they had to take the car, which i really appreciated. I would maybe recommend coming with someone, as it can get a bit lonely at times. However, if you are looking for a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature, this is the place!

About the experience in: Vibonati, Italy
Italy
My experience at the farm was very positive! Amedeo, Lisa and their children made me feel, from the start, part of the family. Amedeo patiently explained to me the farm, its project, and he was always available to answer any of my questions. During the farm stay I collected almonds, figs and apples, cleaned the barn, made cheese at the farm, and helped Lisa prepare the rooms for guests. The farm work was mainly in the morning, so in the afternoon and evening I had the chance to visit the beautiful places and the beaches that surround the farm! 🌸🦎

I had a great time staying at the farm! Lisa and Amadeo have worked hard to create a place that is beautiful, sustainable, and welcoming to volunteers and guests. I mostly worked in the garden weeding, but also had a variety of other tasks to do. Usually I worked in the morning and had the whole afternoon free but occasionally I would help out with the kids in the evening! They have a separate room, bathroom and kitchen just for volunteers. The walk to town is about 40 minutes downhill and can be a little tiring, especially in the heat. It takes about another hour to walk down to the sea

Amedeo and Lisa are lovely people who gave me a warm welcome. If you needed anything or had a question, you could always let them know and they'd sort out any problem. The work in the garden, which always took place in the mornings, was sometimes quite strenuous as the property is situated on a slope. However, I was allowed to do something different almost every day, so the work never got boring. If you want to go to the nearest town (Vibonati) in the afternoon, it's about a 30-minute walk. All in all, I really can recommend this experience.

My experience here was wonderful.
The project and the landscape are very special, but without a doubt the best part is sharing with Amadeo, Lisa and their children.
They are very inspiring people and they made me feel at all times very welcome, respected and valued in my contribution.
Also they are excellent cooks!
I would recommend this experience to anyone who doesn't mind that the house is somewhat isolated.
It is ideal for someone seeking a period of quiet, walks, introspection and a lot of learning.
Thank you very much for everything 🧡
