I had a great experience at the farm, both Katrin and Sile are great hosts and really welcoming, the work was explained clearly and katrin always cleared up anything that I didn’t understand. I learned a lot about the local life with Katrin giving me lots of opportunities to mix with locals and go to events. I really enjoyed my time and would highly recommend to others.

First volontary with WorldPacker was with Katrin and it couldn't have been in a better place. This farm is super nice, calm, and Katrin is a very good teacher. From cleaning the goat's poop to making cheese, while also helping with some fixing, social media, markets, or in the kitchen during events, you won't be bored and you'll be able to learn about various topics/tasks. She is very punctual and always makes sure that you don't do more than 5hours a day, which i liked. Katrin, thank you so much for your kindness, your patience and for sharing some of your knowledge, I really had a good time!

Even though I only spent a week at Katrin's farm, I was warmly welcomed, and the time flew by. If you enjoy being in nature and spending time with animals, this is the perfect place for you. I look forward to coming back someday.

You really get what you signed up for at Katrin's place. And I mean that in the best way possible. The atmosphere at the farm is welcoming and the tasks you perform feel meaningful and really connect you with nature. It's the perfect opportunity to get down to earth if you come from a busy place like Santiago or just immerse yourself with animals and people alike. Katrin is a warm-hearted host and it feels like you're part of the project and not like you're just a bystander helping here and there. I recommend anyone to come here that wants to experience the local culture and nature of Chile.

We were supposed to stay here 20 days but at the end we end up to stay here for more than 2 months! The experience was awesome, we felt welcome at Katrin's house from the moment we arrived at the farm! The days flew, lot of things to learn and to do, it was nice to get in touch with nature and all the animals (goats, dogs,cats..). Katrin is a very patience person who explained us all the things and let us learn more about the granja life! I would recommend this experience to people who loves nature and animals. I will keep this experience in my heart💜

This was Chris' and my first volunteer experience and it was fantastic! Katrin is so knowledgeably about the organic industry and treats her animals and us like family. We learnt a lot about taking care of animals such as goats, geese and chicken! Also about cheese production. It's a beautiful peaceful environment to be in, with work as is described on her listing. We ended up extending our stay and we're sad to say goodbye. Until next time. Big love 💕

An incredible and very dynamic experience. I did everything and enjoyed it a lot. The farm is very pretty and the property where it is located is large, so there is an option to explore and see the landscape. The hosts are very kind and considerate. They took us to the town whenever we needed to go buy little things to snack on. Great experience, I really enjoyed getting out of the urban routine and even visiting the farm in Chile.

Katrin, thank you for everything. You are an amazing host, you’re kind and very sweet. Thank you for teaching me so much in such a short time and for your DELICIOUS homemade food—truly I had a wonderful time, and I hope to be able to go back in the future 💕 The atmosphere, though a little small, is very lovely. We never ran out of gas for the water heater, and Katrin was always attentive to pass us bread (homemade) and eggs. The work schedules are really well organized, and you have plenty of time to do whatever you want to do.

It was a very exciting and educational time at the Granja!
I was there in autumn, which is why I didn't get to see the milk production (I knew that already).
The goats are great.
The work is a bit exhausting at first and sometimes complicated, but you gradually get the hang of it, and Katrin gives clear instructions.
We cleaned out the stalls, removed weeds, and fed the animals.
I especially warmed to Alma and Silvestre. 🐶 🐱
