We are a family with Indigenous roots from the Ecuadorian highlands. You will share in the family farm chores by helping with the care of animals such as chickens, pigs, guinea pigs, and sheep, and with organic farming tasks in the family garden. In the nursery you will learn as you help with gardening tasks, minor repairs, and the handling of native plants, from seed processing to maintaining the trees.

During my only stopover in Ecuador my best choice was to arrive at Ramiro's house; Ramiro is a very special person, with broad knowledge that he is always willing to share; he is a generous, friendly and calm person; his family is very kind and fun; I loved being there; Thank you Ramiro for welcoming me into your house, it was a unique experience. 🐯🦚🐔🐇🐽🌻🌺🍀🍓🥑🍈🥦🌶🍬

I arrived at a difficult moment for the family, but despite that they welcomed me with so much kindness; it was incredible to share and live with Ramiro and his family. I learned a lot about how to care for and plant plants of various varieties, the importance of telling their stories, and about the community and its administration. Ramiro has a lot of knowledge to share and you have the opportunity to learn from everything besides the plants. The house is super nice and the work gives you a lot of flexibility in what you want to learn. Thank you for everything, your learnings I carry with me around the world :)

Foi uma experiência enriquecedora para mim, e muito positiva. Aprendi sobre a flora local e sobre o dia a dia em um viveiro. O local é gostoso de trabalhar, já que você estará imerso em plantas e flores, e ainda, a possibilidade de receber e distribuir carinho à 4 cachorras muito queridas. As instalações eram espaçosas e confortáveis, tive um quarto só para mim e a alimentação saborosa. Agradeço muito ao Luis e sua família, que me receberam sempre muito bem.

Este voluntariado superó mis expectativas, Ramiro y su familia me recibieron como una más de la familia, son muy amables todos, me dieron un cuarto privado, tienes cocina disponible para cuando quieras usarla, me gustaron mucho las comidas que cocinaba Anita y Don Prudencio. Se respetaron los tiempos de trabajo acordados, Ramiro es una persona muy comprensiva y flexible, aprendí mucho en la casa, a sembrar, mantener plantas, sobre abonos orgánicos, a podar árboles, reproducción de plantas por esquejes y mucho más...sin duda una experiencia que recordaré con mucho cariño, 100% recomendado!!

¡Mi paso por la casa fue genial! Ramiro me recibió muy bien y fue muy servicial y comprensivo. Aprendí mucho sobre las plantas y la familia me recibió como una de las suyas. Además, la comunicación fue muy fácil y no tuve ningún problema durante mi estancia. ¡Mil gracias Ramiro!😊😊
