They would help us with farming! We've spent all this time pruning, cleaning, removing grass, and planting (lettuce, vegetables, and fruit trees); we also graft fruit trees. We will also learn how to make jams during the harvest season (strawberries, raspberries).

My time at Patricia's Farm was good.
The work is simple, but can be physically sometimes. Working hours are respected and you can arrange a working schedule if you have some preferences.
The surroundings are really nice and offer alot to explore.
What could be improved is the communication in the project and the equality of the working hours of volunteers from worldpackers and workaway(they work different amounts).
I can recommend to try out this experience of a farmlife. And if you have a nice team of volunteers you will have a really great time there.

Unfortunately terrible communication from the host who had no idea me and another volunteer were arriving with no place for us to stay. Quite a dirty unorganized living space as well with other volunteers not being treated respectfully which was made very clear from the one day I was there.

I appreciated a place to stay & the other volunteers were amazing, however: The place was dirtier than anticipated: disorganized, lots of moldy food. The host's communication was poor: 2 volunteers arrived while the host was away (she did not mention they would be arriving) and we unsuccessfully scrambled to find beds, sheets etc, leading to them finding a hotel instead. The host's response made me uncomfortable, she blamed several volunteers who had done their best to help. I recommend that the host incorporate household cleaning into the daily work hours and improve communication!

I don't want to be overly negative because I did enjoy my stay but some things need to be seriously improved here. The host frequently was unclear about working instructions and would change the time work started/finished at the last minute. Her communication was so poor that two volunteers had to find different accommodation upon arrival and the host blamed faultless volunteers. Another thing that could be improved is that domestic duties around the house were not included in working hours so the house was not always well maintained.

I had a really great time working on Patty's farm! It was a really good opportunity to practice Spanish and even though my Spanish level isn't great Patty was always very patient with me, taking the time to ensure I always understood! I also really enjoyed the work on the farm, and I always found the days went by very quickly! Thank you Patricia!!!
