Food is vegetarian, and we can cater for vegans.

Although working in the country can be physically tiring, it is very rewarding, and you'll have some spare time too. Volunteers are involved in all the daily tasks of running the farm and in exchange for your help we provide you with food and accommodation, and teach you about the theory and practice of sustainable agriculture. Volunteers generally stay for a period of one month, working around 6-7 hours a day, Monday to Saturday.
