The Experience

Hi! Come for a few days to help me on my small ecological farm, in Madrid's La Alcarria region, with two donkeys, two dogs, chickens, and beehives. There is a small cabin for you. I also have a vegetable garden and a swimming pool. The place is ideal for hiking and enjoying the outdoors. I need you to stay on the farm and help walk the dogs, clean the stable, and feed the donkeys :)

Great host, great place, great experience! I am very thankful to Fredi for letting me renovate his place a bit and i hope i made it a little better ☺️ Location is so calm, tasks are chill, plenty of time to be with yourself and explore the area. Very thankful for this opportunity and i wish all the best to Fredi ❤️

The place is not comfortable. There is a difference between simple and precarious. There is no bathroom in the house. You have to walk to Fredi's house. In the bathroom they also wash the dishes. There is no drinking water. There is no plug, the bedding is dirty. It is not two hours of work, because you have to stay in the house all day watching the animals. You must feed the animals in the morning, noon, and afternoon, you must stay there, and there are no people to socialize. The shower is cold. Mice are heard on the roof of the house, and the staircase is in poor condition.

Fredi is a kind person and I felt welcomed from the first day. The tasks on the farm are simple and the animals are wonderful. The cabin is cozy, and I loved spending my free time reading, watching the animals pass by the river, cooking with the vegetables from the garden, and resting. It is the ideal place for anyone seeking a tranquil experience, surrounded by nature, and learning to live more sustainably.

My experience at the farm was beautiful, it is a place that transforms you, fills you with many stories, with breathtaking landscapes and real connections with nature, with the animals and the people. I always felt welcome in any space. Enko and Kora are very noble puppies and full of love, Pedrito and América always greeted me with affection. And Fredi, Fredi is a man full of empathy, with funny stories, full of warmth. Thank you for letting me share with your animals, for letting me roam around arrea and its surroundings, for inviting me to have a few beers and to share with your friends.

The experience at La Granja was incredible. From the first day Fredi made me feel super welcome.😊 The tasks are simple. Spending time with the donkeys América and Pedrito, learning about their care and enjoying nature was something that filled me up a lot.🌳🍁☺️ Also the long walks with Kora and Enko 🐶, I will definitely miss them. 🥹🐕
