Finca Navas
Finca Navas is a treasure inherited from our father, where together with him in life we dreamed of turning it into a place to share with the community and the world, which is why we enjoy making the people who visit us feel like part of the family.
Volunteers can have an experience of simple, rural life, of peace, and harmony with the animals, nature, and mountains.
Our team is made up of family members, with unique abilities and characteristics that together help us pursue a sustainable and environmentally friendly business model. We love simplicity and the wonders that the Finca gives us each day.
Personally, I volunteered for almost 2 years and now I have returned to work on the project, caring for the land and creating a harmonious space to share with the community and the world.

The farm is a family estate that makes you feel part of its home from the first day, ideal for disconnecting from everything, it's incredible how easy you get used to the tranquility of the place

Being at the farm was a very rewarding experience; I connected with nature, it was a totally relaxing space. Working on the land and planting made me aware of the effort required to harvest and cultivate. The staff, more than being staff, was family; from day 1 they opened the doors of their house to us as if we were a sister or another daughter. Regarding the time spent on work and activities, everything was wonderful; everything was well explained and we learned a lot. It was super nice to take care of the chickens, the horses, the dogs, the cat, the geese, the duck and all the other animals.

My time at Fisca the farm was amazing! Living on a farm in the Costa Rican jungle with this wonderful family was an incredible experience. Zulay's kind and welcoming attitude during our phone call was exactly how she and the rest of here family were in person. This was my first volunteering experience, and definitely not my last. The work is flexible, during my two week stay the main project was creating a vegetable garden. Besides that, there were many other daily tasks around the farm to help with. They showed me the beautiful region, with its amazing beaches and unique traditions. Thank you

The farm is a magical place. The people, the animals, and the nature around you make you immerse yourself in the local culture. They welcome you as part of the family, and when you leave, you leave a little piece of your heart there. I recommend this immersive experience to anyone. I am very grateful to have chosen it and to have had the opportunity to meet Zulay, Doña Luz, Aunt Rosa, Jonh, Don Benjamín, José, José Alfredo, Chombito, and the rest of the team. Thank you very much to everyone and to all of you, until next time!

My two weeks at the farm were absolutely magical. From the moment I arrived, Zu and her family made me feel right at home. I learned so much about Costa Rican culture, food, and history. It was such an enriching experience and one of the best experiences of my life. THIS is why I travel and this was such a fulfilling two weeks…my heart is full after spending time here. I was so sad to leave but I know I will return in the future to my amazing new family in Costa Rica! <3
