This ecovillage had a pleasant setting. There was a lot of nice activities to do and to learn about. I had a great time doing the plantations, sowing seeds. The only hard work was to fill the weelbarrows with manure during an entire day. But Maximilian was understanding and let me do some others activities when i told him I wont be able to do it an other day.
I want to thanks Maximilian to have accepted that I come along with my daughter even though I am 67.
I wish you the best for the future !

I was there with my mom to learn more about permaculture and italian. This experience was interesting and we had a good time with Max and others. We did various activities during the day. We were immerge in this beautiful nature. It was amazing to see how this ecovillage is self sufficient and protects nature. Just keep in mind that the place is remote, that you will work until 17pm/ 17pm30 so you won't be able to discover the area. Also the work can be hard (which was okay for me) but depending on your age and physical form just be aware of it. Good continuation to Max and his friend :)

When we arrived the crazy and lovely four dogs instantly greeted us. We got time to adapt before deeply diving into the work. The tasks had a good variation but were also pretty exhausting sometimes (which I Kinda like though). I met very nice people and learned a lot from them. So it is also very good for social development. It all somehow felt like a small family. The one thing that I didn't like is the City being 30 mins away + a very tough road, which is very bumpy with a normal car. And I would not recommend it to people who are intimidated/scared by dogs ( i loved it)

The project is a place built out of conviction and heart, we loved our stay here. Even though the work was hard, cooking dinner with everyone and having random, deep, funny conversations made it worth. This is the place to fall in love with permaculture and really understand it, but also to have the best Italian experience, Max is truly a special kind person, we are grateful this was our first experience and we hope to come back soon. Ps. The food is the best. Taaaaac!

This was my first experience and it was amazing, max is a great person, very funny. We stayed for a moth and learned a lot such as Permaculture, cooking, gardening, harvesting, transplanting, etc (you never stop learning). I felt very comfortable during the whole stay. It's such a great protect, I'm so thankful with Max and all the volunteers I met. The food was awesomeee, true Italian cuisine.
