Welcome to the team! We are located on an indigenous reservation in Canada. Our volunteers come to immerse into indigenous culture and assist as we start our homestead. Here we provide a food bank for animals as well as Equine Assisted Learning. There is always plenty to help with. Everything from household chores, cooking all the way to farm labour, helping with animals and chopping and stacking fire wood.

The hosts were excellent! I really appreciated their transparency and communication from the start. There was a lot of flexibility, and we were able to work around each other easily. The work was varied and rewarding, including projects, groundskeeping, maintenance and caring for animals. I learned a lot about the cultural significance of the land, the reserve, and Indigenous communities. They were always happy to answer my questions. The family treated me like one of their own, and I felt right at home. It was truly fulfilling to contribute to a family who do so much to help others in need.

Tilly, you are truly one of a kind and an absolute gem. You didn’t simply come to help—you became part of our family, and that is something we will always treasure. The warmth, kindness and genuine care you brought into our home, especially the connection you made with the girls, meant more than you know. Some people leave a lasting mark, and you certainly have. Our door will always be open to you—you will always have a place in our family. ❤️

My experience on the farm was wonderful! From the start, I was welcomed with respect, simplicity, and a strong connection to nature. I spent time with horses, rabbits, cats, dogs, and other animals that made it even more special. The farm is beautiful no luxury, but everything that matters: kind people, plenty of food, respectful hours, good cell signal, and internet. One day, I had an upset stomach, and Jennifer quickly checked on me. Dan proudly shared the history of the Indigenous land. I enjoyed it so much I helped on my days off.

I had an amazing time at the shelter! I met Jennifer and her family who were lovely and hospitable from the first day until the last. I also met other travellers who became good friends very quickly! The work is fair and communicated well, and the lodgings are comfortable. I stayed in the cabin which I shared with my partner and another traveller, and there was more than enough room for the 3 of us to sleep and hang out. It really felt like a home away from home. I felt very welcomed into the community and would definitely recommend this experience to someone else! Thanks again Jennifer 😁❤️

Infelizmente nossa experiência não foi positiva. A anfitriã Jennifer nos recebeu de forma grosseira e pediu que meu cunhado, que apenas nos deu carona, se retirasse. Apesar disso, fizemos um tour e notamos problemas de estrutura e organização. O quarto dos voluntários era depósito de ração e, segundo o livro de regras, atraía ratos, e a solução para isso era manter um gato no quarto para caça-los. Também havia risco de coiotes no caminho até o banheiro externo, onde não havia sinal de celular e a própria anfitriã já havia ficado presa. Por segurança, optamos por não continuar o voluntariado.

This review was not based on an actual stay, as the volunteers left after a brief visit and were upset about being marked for not completing their program. The guest was mistaken for a driver, and on an indigenous reservation unannounced visitors aren’t permitted. Our project is still being built, but that is part of the authentic experience. We are an open book and welcome questions to clarify — which they did not do.
