My experience at the farm was great! Super relaxing location to get in touch with the Costa Rican culture. The jungle nature around the finca was also incredible! I saw parrots, toucans, monkeys, and many other species. Unfortunately there were no other volunteers during my time at the finca, but regardless of this I still had a good time with the crew. This provided a good opportunity to practice Spanish too. Yuly (the host) provided great Spanish lessons (which turned into a history lesson but still very interesting nonetheless)!

The farm won my heart! If you are looking for a quite location with strong roots in organic agriculture, outdoor activities and a chill, welcoming vibe— look no further. During my stay there I was involved in the essential organic/permaculture farming experience from seeding, soiling, planting, harvesting and packaging. The work hours are short (7am-12pm) and they really put an effort in teaching you the philosophy, skills, and processes in farming the Costa Rican style. And above all, the magic of the farm is really in the people.

I really liked my experience at the farm. I learned a lot about different things that I would have never in my city. I recommend it if you are looking specifically for a experience like this. You feel like another member of the family

I had a great time volunteering at the farm. I worked on the website, which was a good way to learn more about the inspiring vision for the farm. It was nice to start each day working on the terrace looking out towards the rainforest and mountains. As a vegetarian, I was looked after well, with three big cooked meals every day. In addition to the work, we had a fun time hanging out with the other volunteers and staff, playing games like Uno and taking walks in the area.

I would recommend this project for anyone visiting Costa Rica and wanting to learn more about sustainable farming and using produce from the land in meals. The host made us feel really welcome and quickly responded to our issues with our room. Loved the mix of people we were able to meet because of the ability to accommodate bigger teams of volunteers.
