Description
Hola! Thanks for taking a look at our agri-touristic project and Spanish School in San Rafael Antioquia. We run an eco-lodge, restaurante, and bar as well as our large organic vegetable gardens, fruit forest, with chickens and fish ponds.
Currently we are looking for help in the gardens, reforestation projects, and help preserving San Rafael and our community by collecting trash around the property and the neighborhood to try to keep the area beautiful. We also look for yoga teachers and help with publicity/documentation of the project. We offer our volunteers to participate in a weekly organic gardening/permaculture design workshop!
We have two volunteer programs here:
In the gardens:
We ask for between 3 hours per day (15 hours per week) in exchange for your accommodation with us. We ask for a six day minimum stay. In the gardens you'll learn about making compost, fertilizers, and much more with our "profe" of organic agriculture who comes once or twice a week to work with you (when available) or with one of his assistants if he's unable to come.
The work is mostly in the gardens, making compost, planting, and general maintenance in the gardens, though once a week we might ask you to help with our recycling initiative or collect natural resources on the farm (firewood, sand from the river, stones for garden beds and paths etc.)
In our recycling project:
We ask for 5 hours per day in exchange for your accommodation and three meals a day from our restaurante. We have a one month minimum stay and three day trial period for the recycling program to make sure its a good fit. This program focuses around recycling and waste reduction, though also includes other tasks around the farm and eco-lodge. For the recycling program we are looking for bilingual and social people! Some of your work will be solo, so its important you are independent, but its equally important than you can work well with others as you will be working at times with the team in the gardens and help lead activities with the other volunteers!
If you have any questions, feel free to write us!
¡Hola! Gracias por echarle un vistazo a nuestro proyecto agroturístico y Escuela de idiomas en San Rafael, Antioquia. Aquí trabajamos manejando un eco-lodge con restaurante y bar, y una grande huerta orgánica, con un bosque comestible en progreso, y cultivo de pescado y gallinas.
Actualmente estamos buscando ayuda en los jardines, proyectos de reforestación y ayuda para preservar San Rafael y nuestra comunidad recogiendo basura alrededor de la propiedad y la vereda para mantener el zona bonita. También buscamos profesores de yoga y ayuda con la publicidad/documentación del proyecto. ¡Ofrecemos a nuestros voluntarios la oportunidad de participar en un taller semanal de jardinería orgánica/diseño de permacultura!
Tenemos dos programas de voluntariado aquí:
En la huerta:
Pedimos alrededor de 3 horas por día (15 horas por semana) a cambio de tu alojamiento con nosotros. Pedimos una estancia mínima de seis días. En los jardines aprenderás sobre hacer compost, fertilizantes y mucho más con nuestro "profe" de agricultura orgánica que viene una o dos veces por semana a trabajar contigo (cuando disponible) o con uno de sus asistentes en el caso que él no puede venir.
El trabajo es principalmente en los jardines, haciendo compost, sembrando y manteniendo los jardines, aunque una vez a la semana podríamos pedirte que nos ayudes con nuestra iniciativa de reciclaje o recolectando recursos naturales en la finca (leña, arena del río, piedras para los caminos del jardín, etc.)
En nuestro proyecto de reciclaje:
Pedimos 5 horas por día a cambio de tu alojamiento y tres comidas al día en nuestro restaurante. Tenemos una estancia mínima de un mes y un período de prueba de tres días para el programa de reciclaje para asegurarnos de que haya buena conexión con nuestro equipo. Este programa se centra en el reciclaje y la reducción de residuos, aunque también incluye otras tareas en la finca y el eco-lodge. Para el programa de reciclaje buscamos personas bilingües y sociables. Parte de tu trabajo será solo, por lo que es importante que seas independiente, pero también es igualmente importante que puedas trabajar bien con otros ya que vas trabajar a veces con el equipo en los jardines y puedes ayudar a liderar actividades con los otros voluntarios.

Travellers on the farm have the opportunity to spend time around el macanal river in San Rafael, Antioquia--getting to know a small community of Colombians and immigrants living in the Antioquian mountains. We are trying new farming techniques, new types of construction and in general trying to learn new things as often as possible. Everyday there is something to learn or to try on the farm.
Aide
--Looking for musicians, artists, photographers and nice people to come and spend some time on our farm in-between San Rafael and San Carlos Antioquia!
--Looking for photographers to help with the publicity and documentation for our project!
--Looking for Yoga Teachers!
As many of our volunteer oportunities will change with the season as well as with the skills a volunteer brings to the table, it is a bit difficult to describe the daily tasks of all volunteers. That said, we expect 3 hours of good help five days a week!Langues

Autres infos...
Our farm is located on the river el Macanal in San Rafael, Antioquia. We are quite isolated, but surrounded by beautiful nature. With ten beautuiful swimming spots, and a waterfall on the property, the surrounding nature should keep you occupied in your freetime. There is also an eco lodge on the property with a bar, live music, and restaurant for some weekend entertainment. The town of San Rafael is about an hour walk away, or a ten minute walk and 15 minute tuc tuc drive.

Typically are internet is stable. We have a local internet provider for the entrance of the hotel and starlink in the area of the restaurante. We are in a rural area with power outages and storms, so every few weeks we are without internet for at least a few hours while maintenance is being done or while there are big storms.

The location is just magical, situated right on the river in San Rafael.

For a cost you get 3 delicious… read more
