I had an amazing time on the farm. Jean-Luc and Stephané were amazing hosts and I learned a lot about the community cultivation and local culture. I happened to be there for a village ball where we danced traditional Occitan dances (Jean-Luc taught us the steps beforehand!) with the very welcoming local community. The work was very rewarding, the food was amazing, and I was able to practice my French. I am so grateful for the hospitality, memories, and amazing experience! Thank you!

This farm is a perfect getaway spot. Work was easy and enjoyable: planting seeds, taking out weeds, preparing vegetables for the market. Jean-Luc and Stephane were very kind and welcoming hosts, always having a positive approach. During my stay there were a lot of volunteers from all around the world which made the experience even more special. You will be in a remote area, so getting around is tricky, but we were still able to da lot of sightseeing. Jean-Luc took us to a traditional dance event and cooked us a lot of traditional food, which was great for learning about the local culture:)

Had an amazing experience at Jean-Luc's farm! Very welcoming from the very beginning, good conversations, very good food (!!) and a beautiful landscape. The donkeys and the dogs also made the experience amazing! Learned a lot about vegetables and other plants, and the tasks varied a lot which is good! Jean Luc also showed us traditional dance, and brought us to two festivals and one dance class, which's was a lot of fun! Would totally recommend to come here, for a different and interesting experience :)

I had a great time at the farm. Jean Luc and Stephane welcomed me with open arms and showed me their culture and their region. I loved the dance classes and the hike we went to so much. The surrounding nature and villages are super sweet aswell and I loved using the bikes to explore them. The food was super good and all fresh and the community. It's a super peaceful and quit place to be :) The only thing you should know is that it can get quite lonely if there are no other volunteers and when I was there it was sometimes really cold. But it was truly a special experience. I really enjoyed my stay.

Cuando llege fui recibido por Jean Luc que es una persona muy simpatica, alegre y en la positividad , un gran líder y Esteban es una persona muy chill y siempre te hace sentir parte del staff, es muy atento ! Mi habitación era super completa ,amplia y con una cama super confortable y con cocina y una estufa a leña que disfrute las noches frías en compañía contemplando el fuego! Como experiencia tienes que preguntar lo que quieras saber que es muy interesante y las comidas eran muy ricas y nutritivas y los trabajos dignos de un voluntariado ! Realmente su labor es muy honorable !Graciassss!!
