I went to the farm to improve my Italian and get in contact with Nature. But I got more - now I have a Sicilian family that has a special place in my heart ❤️. Many thanks and see you again !

The experience at the farm was great. Ambro and his family are adorable and make me feel at home. I took care mainly of the animals (sheep, donkeys, hens, dogs and cats) because in February there was not much to do in the fields. The landscape is wonderful and allows you to disconnect and immerse yourself in nature. Thanks for everything

They welcomed me as part of their family. The food is delicious and being organic it is very digestive and nutritious. I read, I disconnected, on days off I went to Palermo and other towns near the sea. The farm animals are very loving. Beautiful landscapes. Highly recommended for those who like the countryside, my tasks were to take care of the sheep, feed the animals and work in the crops. I learned a lot from them. Thank you :)

It was a wonderful chance to enjoy nature and learn about Sicilian traditions and cuisine. Rosetta and Ambroggio are wonderful people, they welcome you as a part of the family and go the extra mile when it comes to helping you with anything you may need. I already miss Nina, Dick, Marieta and Gemma. They fill your days with joy 😊

Ro and Ambro are very good people.Ro is very kind.They will make you feel at home right away.The food was good, have breakfast, lunch and dinner as listed in the app.The landscape is beautiful and they have lovely animals (dogs, cats, sheeps, a horse, chickens and donkeys).During this season the job is very demanding. You will work from 9to12 and then from 2to5 (until is dark) recollecting olives.In the midtime and after it you also have to feed the animals. So it will be more than 5 h. In your days off you will need to leave the house because he will not allow you to stay there.

It's a good opportunity for those who want to connect with nature. The landscapes are stunning and the hosts are welcoming people. Depending on your physical condition and if there aren't other volunteers (which was our case, we were only 2), the work can get tiring and you can miss cultural exchange. The tasks were nice, but we wish they would offer more appropriate equipment for executing a few and we ended up doing a few tasks that were not written in the application. We felt we would have more free time so we decided to leave earlier, but we're grateful for everything we have learnt!

This was my third and last experience in a two-month journey across Italy and I could not be happier. It was the perfect end to a beautiful and intense period of volunteering in eco-projects. I learned, shared, and enjoy fully with Ambro e Rosa in a calm place in the middle of the mountains, of Sicily, -and of the world!. During three weeks I was part of the house in a very cozy, confident, and joyful atmosphere, surrounded by beautiful animals and eating the greatest simple and delicious food. Vario family is now my extended family in Sicily! Thank you for your love and generosity. Baccio!

Uau! This is the most important experience of my life. We're 6 people from different countries and we have a lovely and hard social living. At first we had some problems with the host, but we can solve everything talking about. I worked all days except one cause I ask to da day off and it was not a problem. I really made friends and learned to much about agriculture. The food is so special! You will see! Thank you Ambrogio and Rosetta, I'm so grateful.

Gracias a Ambro y su familia he vivido una grata experiencia trabajando en la granja, rodeado de montañas y naturaleza. Ideal para quienes buscan alejarse de la convulsionada vida de la ciudad. Pude mejorar mi italiano y probar muchas recetas locales increíbles, acercándome y aprendiendo mas sobre la cultura de Sicilia. Fue mi primer experiencia como voluntario y me siento bien de que haya sido en tales condiciones.

Por ser mi primera experiencia con el voluntariado resultó ser inmejorable ya que fue como sentirme en casa en todo momento, sea por la relación y el buen trato que hubo siempre, son excelentes personas y muy amorosas, el trabajo siempre fue el hablado y nunca un mal trato ni malos entendidos, la cocina/comida de Rosa por diosssss un manjar al igual que de Estela obvio, y Ambro es un genio en general, son un cago de risa y realmente la pasé muy bien, muchas gracias por esta bella experiencia y voy a volver 💪🏻🇦🇷🇮🇹!
