Estância Monte das Oliveiras

We do composting, crop rotation, ecological farming, direct farming, permaculture and activities such as weeding and tending to vegetable gardens.
Práctices:
We offer gluten-free meals, gardens, flowers, vegetables, creole grains, medicinal herbs and orchards.
Detail: We started an ECOVILLA project and, therefore, if you have experience and IMPLEMENTATION IN ECOVILA, ARCHITECTURE, CIVIL ENGINEERING, ELECTRICIAN, come help us.

You will feel renewed by this experience.
Our volunteer will also accompany production and help to produce: gluten-free bread, natural food, cooking without wheat, and will be able to harvest and eat.

Seeking a harmonious lifestyle with the planet, for 15 years we have found this wonderful place that made the realization of a dream possible. We have managed to keep the richness of life with the forest standing and at the same time we implemented our intercrop crops, thus sharing (humans, animals and forest) the same space in a sustainable way establishing a harmony among all living beings. We use the natural resources of the property to maintain our production, free from any external contamination.

Detail: We started an ECOVILA project and therefore, we also rely on volunteers who have experience and IMPLEMENTATION IN ECOVILA, ARCHITECTURE, CIVIL ENGINEERING, ELECTRICIAN.
Currently we are not producing to sell our organic products; they are produced only for our own consumption, i.e., our production is family farming.

We have within our property a country house that we rent on weekends for people who want to experience life close to nature and we count on the volunteer to respect this space.

The room offered to the male volunteer is shared with a professional who works here at the Ranch, and the room offered to the female volunteer is shared with the owner of the Ranch.

It is always an experience for both those who come and those who are here. We love exchanging knowledge and we are sure that this place will enchant with its natural beauty.

To reach the site, you must leave Vitória heading to Santa Teresa (via Fundão) by Lírio dos Vales bus line. The last bus of the day leaves at 17:20 and fare is cash only. The property is located 9 km from the city center, i.e., it is somewhat isolated like most ranches.

WE ONLY ACCEPT VOLUNTEERS who have social networks or reviews here on this platform.
If you are coming from another country, you need to have vaccinations up to date.

When aligned with the arrival, we request a virtual pre-meeting to align details, answer questions, and clarify how we live in this paradise.

We have a country house that we rent on weekends for people who want to be in a quiet and harmonious place.

Angelina is a wonderful person!! Since our first conversation she has been very welcoming, showed all the facilities via video call, and we were also able to arrange a ride to the property. It was days of a lot of tranquility, a connection with nature, an incredible variety of birds, bees, and a hummingbird that lives on the property, in addition to the dogs Romeu, and Panqueca and the kitten Chica. The work was very flexible and agreed, and I was able to learn about composting, pruning, crown shaping and fertilization of the fruit trees on the property. Amazing days that I recommend and I hope to be able to repeat soon!

Angelina is a wonderful host with a truly kind heart who makes you feel like part of the family from the moment you arrive. I had an awesome stay, and her adorable dogs made the experience even more special. The location is peaceful, quiet, and perfect if you’re looking to disconnect and enjoy nature. It is quite isolated, so it’s not ideal if your goal is to meet many fellow volunteers, but this was clearly communicated in advance. Overall, it was an amazing and memorable experience.

Dear, it's me who wants to thank you for the kindness you've shown to me and my family. And how great that I managed to read everything you wrote in English, so it means that your time here has helped me a lot; I can read more texts in English.

Again, thank you very much for your goodwill; my door is always open here to welcome you.

My experience was very good. I loved meeting Anny and Ange — two very kind people who welcomed me warmly from the start. In addition, they were amazing at taking me to get to know several places in the region, which made the experience even more special. It was a short time, but with great exchanges.

I applied twice for this vacancy. Angelina is a person with a heart of gold. She helped me in many ways. The facilities are excellent. The contact with nature was all good. a guest house is a place for those who want silence, peace and quiet. If you like silence and calm here is the right place. There is Chica, the kitten, and Romeo, the lovely English dog. I saw monkeys, fish, birds of all species, a toucan. I learned about composting, plants. Angelina is a privileged person in all senses to live in a place as beautiful as this. Thank you and gratitude!
