Program Details

I'm looking for people who are interested in helping with planting, harvests, animal care, milking cows, etc.
All of this with a family-like experience, sharing our traditions and knowledge.


Activities & Shift

Activities start early (6.30- 7am) with feeding chickens, dogs, cats, quails, and milking cows.
Later, cultivation activities are carried out, such as caring for the banana trees or the home garden.
Around 15pm, the calves are gathered from the pastures and the animals are fed again.


Rules

These rules aren't meant to limit you, but to ensure we can all live in harmony. The farm is a place of connection, respect, and mutual growth. If something isn't clear or you disagree, we'll talk about it before you arrive. The most important thing: here we treat others, the animals, and the land as we would like to be treated. Therefore what is asked: cleanliness and order, do not mistreat the animals, do not leave lights on unnecessarily, do not waste water, excessive consumption of alcohol or tobacco is prohibited.
