I fully enjoyed my time at the Center, the peace found on the property is unmatched. Two long term residents, Jamie and Zoe, made the experience what it was by offering community and wonderful food to the volunteers, they made it feel like home. The work we did was centered around the health and wellbeing of us and the finca, mostly harvest and maintenance around the houses, gardens, and trails; the work-life balance was fitting for a work stay. Had to be flexible with sleeping arrangements and transportation in and out of the farm, and the property is fairly deep in the mountains as well

I spent 3 weeks at the Center. I really enjoyed my stay thanks to one of the permanent residents, Jaime, who is really engaged with the volunteers, as well as keen to educate and teach about the Puertorican culture and cuisine. Blake and Joey who run the farm are very kindhearted people. Heads up is to be flexible where you sleep if you don't sleep in a tent. The chores that I did were more maintenance of the property and to clean the houses after AirBnB guests. I think it would have been a full circled experience if there would have been a yoga or building event at the time I was there.
