My time at the farm was an experience I will never forget! And I 100% recommend it to other volunteers !! My time spent there I got to learn about the local people, Chinese culture, and agriculture/ farming. Each day we got served delicious local food and did jobs around the farm that were not too difficult. Additionally we were given 3 days off a week to explore the city and other parts of china. My the farm on top was the amazing people I met on the trip! Big thanks to host Leela and Chris who worked directly with the volunteers. Along with the other volunteers there!

The best experience without doubt. It gives you the opportunity to know local and foreign people and their culture. The works are vary, interesting and not hard to do. The days off allow you to travel even far, at night you have a lot of time too to rest and chill. It's near to Xi'an, the food is amazing, the place is peaceful. Thanks workers, others volunteers, Leela and especially Chris for making this such a good experience for me. I would recommend this volunteer 100% so if you have the opportunity to come take it. Gracias!!! <3

I am very grateful that my friend and I had the opportunity to volunteer on this farm as we have learnt a lot about Chinese culture, language and agriculture. We also made good friends with the other volunteers as we worked together with the locals to package sweet corn and plough the fields for sweet potatoes. We were given adequate days off, and the timetable was flexible, which was particularly helpful given the persistent heat. Living on the farm was a positive and memorable experience thanks to Chris, who welcomed us warmly and took great care of all the volunteers.

My friend and I had a fantastic experience on this farm. It helped us build many new skills and it immersed us in Chinese culture. We made new friends and learnt many new things about farming and agriculture. We especially want to thank Chris, who was always there to help us and took amazing care of us and all volunteers.

I really enjoyed my time at the farm and would highly recommend it to other volunteers. the farm is about an hour from Xi'an. During your stay you can work with local farmers and have a chance to see a different side of China, away from the busy cities. The work is not hard: usually two 3-hour sessions a day, with breaks and three meals provided. You work for 4 days and have 3 days off. The people are friendly and helpful (Chris <3). The living conditions are fine, and there is plenty of free time in the evenings. I met many great people, both locals and other volunteers.
