🌱 Join our project on Lake Garda 🏞️


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.
