Hi, we're Jonny and Ron!
We're developing our family farm into a Farm Retreat, in Negros Occidental, and we're looking for volunteers to help us at the very beginning. We're building it from the ground up. We want the retreat to be simple, sustainable and welcoming, and a good place for people to slow down and reconnect with nature.
