We live in apartments nearby - with WIFI.

So there is a lot of gardening work and some maintenance work and some help with construction - watering the trees-the vegetables, feeding the animals, help with building up irrigation, and construction of a camping site. FOR SUMMER we are searching for people helping with children, courses etc...any idea welcome.

We are located close to town in a 15 minutes walk. Very good public transport on La Palma. We live nearby in apartments, Wifi. We do have aside from the permanents 3-4 volunteers helping us in all respects. Volunteers work daily on weekdays - usually between 8-14:00. We are very close to town so contact around is very good. We are now seeing the trees growing and wait for the next vegetables to come and the farm growing with landscaping and construction.
