The Experience

Project Pueblo Viejo is an initiative of conservation and agroecology 20 km from Morelia, Michoacán. We operate a native tree nursery, produce bioinputs, and restore a local spring. We are looking for volunteers eager to learn and work outdoors. We offer lodging in a shared cabin and meals in exchange for 24 hours per week of hands-on field work.

An absolutely perfect experience from A to Z. Jahaziel is a great host, with generosity, kindness, and incredible pedagogy. The instruction alongside him was very valuable during these two weeks. He is a passionately engaging person; I enjoyed working on his project, by his side as well as beside the different volunteers. I would recommend it 1000%; if you want to get closer to nature, help it and learn more about it, the farm is the perfect place.

The site was simply one of the best experiences I’ve had while traveling. Jahaziel is a host and an amazing person. Respectful, kind, understanding and he did everything so that we felt at ease, he welcomed us as if we were part of his family. I learned a lot from him about various aspects. The work is great, the hours were very respected and I learned a lot about the environment and reforestation. The cabin is beautiful and I ate extremely well during volunteering. I was also lucky to spend Día de Muertos at the site and it was simply incredible. I recommend it to all travelers 🌱❤️
