I really enjoyed my time at Ramounat.
It is rustic and in used no machinery. I love that it is in the mountains and is trying to be self sufficient. I love that the work is hands on. I got out of my comfort zone and really enjoyed it.
I love the people who are at the farm it really feels like a family :) The food is so fresh on the farm.
I have learnt so much on this farm and will definitely miss it. I hope to definitely come back again :))

I had the most incredible opportunity to volunteer at a truly off-grid, back-to-basics farm, an unforgettable and deeply transformative experience. From the moment arrived, I was welcomed by a warm, kind, and supportive community. Life is rustic, with no modern comforts like hot water, relying on manual labour, resilience, and initiative. It can be challenging, but incredibly rewarding. I met amazing people who became true friends, and the connection to nature and community is something I'll carry forever. Not for faint hearted, but perfect for those seeking a meaningful, immersive experience

This experience is on the extreme end of off grid farm life. It was a bit too much for me as almost zero comforts provided and very remote, however the location was beautiful and the people were friendly. There would have been lots of learning about sustainability and farm life had i chosen to stay the whole time so if thats your thing this place would be good for you!

This is a very special place, I feel very lucky I got to spend time here. the community has made a big impact on my life and what I learned here I plan to bring with me as I continue through life. Thank you to all the wonderful people, animals and the mountains! I am so grateful!

My experience at the community was amazing, being with the mountains, the garden, and the goats was truly a transformative experience for me. Although sometimes the instructions for work were not very clear, as I don't understand much French but generally was able to connect with people even with a language barrier. The work is not for the faint of heart but I enjoyed learning about how to take care of the land and the simplicity of this life. Everyone was welcoming, and we shared many laughs and joys playing music and cooking over a fire.This is the place for anyone wanting to escape society!

I had the best time at the community! The farm is so beautiful, expansive and the gardens are stunning. The work is hard but there are lots of breaks and the food was very healthy. Go if you want to be really embedded in nature. The nearest little town is long walk so unless you get a lift you can't really go anywhere. My only critiques would be that the work plan and hours/days off were never really clarified. At the start I didn't know what I was supposed to be doing, but I figured it out. Also, because of the nature farm life, there aren't really days off. Still I had a fantastic few weeks!

This was quite an immersion into off-the-grid living. The contrast it has with „normal“ life was quite large but definitely adaptable. There was definitely a language barrier that held some deep connections from forming, but we found our ways around them usually. The work is hard, and the hours are pretty flexible depending on when you needed/wanted a break. The goat herding is hard, so bring a good pair of hiking boots/shoes. My main issue was with the water, as there is some bacteria or something that makes most visitors stomachs upset and that was the reason why my stay was cut short.

The community is a beautiful farm, a great community of people in the mountains. The place is far from any city and nature is beautiful. Accomodation is pretty simple and nice, but can be tough when it's cold. Being here means living in a community, working in the garden, cooking on fire, eating vegetables grown on the land, having fun dinners and playing music :) Work can be hard sometimes, but it's done slowly, all together, and you can always rest if needed.It's better to stay here for longer as there is a lot to learn: goats, being a shepherd, making cheese, horses, managing garden and more :)

I had a very good experience in the community; it is somewhat challenging to be living in a community without electricity and other amenities of the modern world. But in the same way it is an opportunity for reflection on society today and ourselves.

Fue una experiencia increíble! Aprendí muchísimo sobre sustentabilidad y apreciar la vida en la naturaleza, tomando los alimentos de la tierra, viviendo en las montañas una vida sencilla y trabajos físicos desafiantes, conectando con los animales. Peter el host, es un personaje muy divertido con un gran corazón y una gran persona. Siempre se preocupó por mi bienestar y comodidad al igual que todos allí. Son personas maravillosas que vale totalmente la pena conocer❤️🩹 Si te gusta la naturaleza y quieres desconectar recomiendo este lugar al cien por ciento!
