The Experience

We are looking for volunteers to support our poultry farm of 300 hens and to learn about small-scale egg production and rural life. Tasks include feeding the hens, collecting and sorting eggs, basic cleaning of the chicken coops, monitoring animal welfare, and assisting with simple repairs and maintenance of fences. No prior experience is required, only responsibility.

We had a really nice time at the farm of Duncan and his family. They're really friendly and kind and it was so nice to get to know them! Duncan is also very flexible with work hours. The accommodation was a cabin for three people with one room with a double bed which was very cozy and one room with a single bed. The property has pretty views and the dogs and cats are incredible sweet! We did different tasks like berry picking, repairing fences and cleaning the chicken coops. Overall we had a really nice time there. Thank you, Duncan :)

I had a peaceful and enjoyable time at granja Livingston. Duncan, the host, and Rocio, his sister, are so kind and hospitable. The house for volunteers is SO wonderful with a perfect kitchen, hot shower, cozy furnace, and comfy beds. The scenery is stunning especially in the mornings. The work is a lot of berry picking, weeding, and repairing various gates and fences. There are two dogs and cats who kept us company while we worked and are so precious. My experience was awesome mostly because of my fellow volunteers, but I would feel lonely without them. Perfect!

All I have to do is thank you for the time I spent with Duncan. For me, it was a moment of introspection, as I was alone most of the time, but I never lacked anything. The volunteers' house is very, very comfortable. I had freedom to carry out the activities and, whenever I needed it, Duncan was flexible with the shifts, whether changing the days off or allowing me to adjust the schedules. Without a doubt, I will be back very soon.

I can only thank you for Thiago's work, a very cheerful person with a very good disposition; without a doubt he was a great help for our farm, and I would recommend his work to any host.
