Volunteering at Veronique and Tom was a wonderful experience. I connected with nature, animals and experienced the local culture. I recommend going if you want to learn about farming, animals and a healthy lifestyle. As a vegetarian, I really had what to eat. Truly recommend!!! Nice people and enchanted place🥹

• Perfect for 1° time volunteers • Tom is grumpy in the morning • Veronique is just lovely • ASK if u didnt understand something • TALK, both of them are always open to do it, dont be scared, they are comprehensive & amazingly weird, dont disappear randomly (like me) • The bus exist, but not in weekends or august [4'30€] • There is no problem being vegan or dont/cant eat certain foods • Its ok to make mistakes, learn from them • Literally everyday u learn something new • Pls, water my grass --- I cant believe the amount of patience they (specially Tom) had for us, I hope the best for them<3

As a first WP experience I feel glad to have had Tom & Veronique as hosts, they are fun to be around, both of them are very honest, flexible, empathetic, and very understanding. Tom cooks very tasty simple dishes and made sure all of us were well fed even if any of us had different dietary needs. There is a lot of work to do in the farm, please keep helping it grow for the better, flexibility, comunication and adaptabillity are key in the farm. • The room for volunteers is 10/10 • ✨please talk✨ & don't take anything personal in morning • Careful with the dogs (playful & strong)

Good experience overall. Tom was a very fair and welcoming host. It was a very nice farm with many types of animals including chickens, ducks, quail, guinea pigs and rabbits. Overall I'd recommend this experience to anyone who doesn't mind doing a bit of farm work and other small jobs such as painting, building enclosures etc.
