The farm offer an experience of sustainable agriculture in practice, where volunteers can connect with the reality of rural life, interact with the local traditional community, and contribute to a project focused on producing healthy, pesticide-free food. We are a certified organic production centre that operates with agroforestry systems to produce food and aromatic herbs.
*This position is ONLY for people that have some experience in agriculture/rural life before*
We are a couple – Giulia and Pedro – dedicated to caring for nature and producing food and medicine while regenerating the land. In addition to us, the farm is supported by skilled rural workers who have been involved in agriculture since childhood and have much to teach us. During your time volunteering with us, you will learn how to cultivate organically, working alongside us in planting, harvesting, weeding, and many other essential activities of rural life.

About the experience in: Teresópolis, Brazil
Brazil
My experience was very enriching. It's a remote place, ideal for connecting with the land and nature. It was my first volunteering experience at a place like this, and I loved it. Pedro and Giulia, the hosts, are very attentive and communicate very well with the volunteers. The tasks include pokan harvest, planting vegetables and weeding, essential in organic farming without agrochemicals. I loved the company of the three dogs, the dog Seu Madruga, and the two cats. Anderson, an employee, is extremely polite and teaches you everything. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to learn about organic farming.

The experience at the site was rich, I learned a lot about all the stages of the organic production process, management in agroforestry and distillation of essential oils.
The exchanges with everyone at the site are very good; Pedro and Giulia are always willing to explain everything about each activity we are doing and its importance in cultivation
My first experience at worldpackers was very beautiful in the mountains of Teresópolis

The site offers a unique experience with epic views of the region. Pedro and Giulia always take the time to explain the processes and the philosophy behind what they do, I had a very nice learning experience 'on the farm'. The region is very beautiful, there is a wizard who says there are many trails around…

I had a wonderful stay! Pedro and Giulia are very kind, full of good advice and eager to share. Pedro explained to me and taught me a lot about the farm and organic farming; you can tell he loves what he does and enjoys sharing his knowledge! It was really enriching, thank you very much :)
