The Experience

We are looking for volunteers who want to live a simple and authentic experience in the Desenzano del Garda countryside, just a few minutes from Lake Garda. We have a family-owned plot of land with olive trees, fruit trees 🌳, a small vegetable garden and some rural spaces that we are tidying up and enhancing. It is a quiet place, surrounded by greenery 🍃, where we want to gradually reclaim the spaces and keep them alive.

My time there was incredible. Alessandro is a great host and every other volunteer were so friendly. The accommodation and food was great. The job is pretty manageable and it was pretty enjoyable for me. We did a lot of activities in our free time such as biking around the town and going to the beach, barbecue, playing billiards, card games, watching movies, doing slack line, volleyball and more!
I really suggest the experience to one who loves the nature, doing activities, meeting new people.
If you wonder the financial part, you can easily spend your days without spending a penny as I did

My week on this lakefront farm was an incredible experience. The main task was olive harvesting, in addition to helping organize and clean the farm. We worked five hours a day, with afternoons and weekends free. The work is simple.
Alessandro is an exceptional host. He truly cares that every volunteer feels good and has a positive experience. He is kind, organized, knows how to communicate, and leads the group very well. He welcomes people of all ages and nationalities, which makes the living environment very enriching. ❤️🔋✨

Mi experiencia en la casa fue increíble. Aprendí mucho sobre la cosecha de aceitunas me divertí, conocí personas maravillosas y disfruté de momentos inolvidables. Además, tuve la oportunidad de conocer el hermoso Lago di Como. Sin duda, una experiencia que recordaré con mucho cariño y que recomiendo totalmente que vengan a vivir esta experiencia 👌🏼
