Mi experiencia fue maravillosa. Juan es un super buen hospedador, muy buena onda y ,relajado explica muy bien las tareas y tiene mucho para enseñar sobre agroecología. También estaba David de canada que es super chimba, Fiona la perrita es la más linda, también esta Eli y Carlos una pareja colombiana que son super amables. También pude conocer amigos de Juan y me invitaron a una caminata de 4 días lo que fue una experiencia increíble. Lo recomiendo muchísimo y espero poder volver a venir en algún momento. :DDD

La experiencia fue muy buena. Juan es una gran persona, muy amigable y respetuosa. La finca es pequeña pero hay muchas cosas por hacer y se encuentra en una buena ubicación, bastante céntrica con respecto a otros pueblos del oriente antioqueño. Disfruté mucho el tiempo que estuve allí.

The farm es increíble!!!! aprendí mucho sobre huertos orgánicos, su mantenimiento y su importancia en estos tiempos, El lugar es cercano al pueblo de Carmen de the farm, tienen una cocina donde podrás preparar tus alimentos y uno puede pillar comida fresca y orgánica de los huertos, además tienen un teatro!!!! 😬 dónde se pueden presentar obras, películas y dar talleres, los horarios de trabajo son respetados y las tareas fáciles de aprender. Me encantó la experiencia en the farm!!! Pisco, Cami y claro Fiona!!!! gracias por esta experiencia, espero volverlos a ver pronto, gracias!
