The Experience

We are looking for people who love the nature and can also take care of themselves. (especially cooking for yourself) because I might not be there on the weekends. The main help might be harvesting, weeding, fertilizing, fencing, building, and sometimes might need help on the weekends to take care of the dog

I really enjoyed my time at the farm, it's situated in a beautiful remote area in the mountain, the perfect place if you want to take a break from the busy world. The work was easy, and we had plenty of free time to rest or do whatever we wanted (hiking, visiting the tea factory, going to the natural water slide...). Steven is a really nice and easy going person, and he cooks amazing taiwanese food ! The dog is amazingly cute, I will miss him so much ! If you come during winter, you should bring really warm clothes because it can be very chilly and humid, especially during the night.

My experience on Steven's Farm was I really enjoyable experience. The work isn't to hard, me and the other volunteer worked together with building fences, harvesting crops, taking care of the dog(really nice dog) and help in kitchen. The area around the farm is scenic and quiet, perfect if you need a break from the city. We did two weeks which was a perfect amount of time as the farm is a bit out of the way. There are lots of hiking trails, waterfalls and rivers everywhere. The farm is about one hour away from town. Steven also showed us how to make some Taiwanese cuisine too.Thank you Steve.
