Beschreibung
I've spent the past few years working on small farms, and fell in love with that lifestyle. I value the independence and freedom of producing my own food, and that every day is different than the one before. The work is hard, but it's always worth it to watch a place grow. I have experience in gardening, animal care, cooking, and construction. I'm always happy to share my knowledge with anyone, and love learning from others!

vom Host (Homestead has space for ...) für Workawayer (Zach)
We loved having Zach with us at Keahuaiki Farm. He is a very conscientious, caring, observant, competent and multi-talented workawayer. He learns quickly and has a strong work ethic.
While he stayed with us, Zach helped with a number of different projects ranging from construction to house-painting prep; from digging garden beds and amending… read more

I stayed with Katie and Tiger for 2 weeks in March 2024 and loved it! Both of them are very friendly and accommodating, and I felt welcomed into their home as soon as I got there. Some of the work involved removing guinea grass and planting pigeon pea, madre de cacao, avocado, lychee, and breadfruit in bands. The property is a long, narrow farm on… read more

(Swiss-Honduran family run ...)
I was able to stay for about a week at the farm, and loved it. I'm interested in one day starting a cacao farm, so was glad to spend time talking with someone who really knows what he's doing. The finca is a small (couple of hectares) farm on a slope. Work included chopping the underbrush with a machete, making concrete, splitting logs, and… read more

(Ocean front permaculture and ...)
I spent several weeks at Monique and Jim's permaculture project doing a variety of different tasks. These included landscaping a pile of dirt into a terraced hill for pineapples, building rock retaining walls around the terraces, and building a glass bottle wall. I loved learning to make the wall since I'd never made one before and the end result… read more

Gracias por tu visita y por la ayuda cortando esos troncos! This man is ready to work, carrying tools and all the basic equipment of a farmer! Open the doors to him and get ready to work hard, I would like to say more, but is better if you figure out.

Rubén is one of the most passionate permaculturists I've met in Central America. He's working on building a sustainable farm to show other farmers that it is possible to grow without mountains of synthetic pesticides, and from the moment I met him I could tell he truly believed in his project. He's extremely knowledgeable, his family (and him) are… read more

Emma's yoga school was a phenomenal workaway experience with some of the nicest people I've met. The place is run primarily by her family, who made me feel part of the group from the minute I walked through the gate. I spent most of the time there doing light construction and gardening in order to help the place grow more of the food they serve… read more

My time volunteering in the jungle was great. I worked with the garden, kitchen, and animal pastures of a resort trying to become self sufficient with their food. I learned a ton, such as how to build a roof out of palm leaves or the best time in the moon cycle to go fishing. The staff is great and more than willing to share their knowledge of the… read more

Zach came for 2 months, stayed for 8. We're so glad for his help with starting our farm to table operations! He was the main force behind building our rotational pasture system, which is a huge step forward in becoming self sufficient. He also worked extensively with the gardeners to grow food during the flood season, and worked with the kitchen… read more
