Description
Hi there! We are Davide and Antonietta. We have a small holding - which is steadily getting bigger - in a truly beautiful spot in the Marche region. We farm goats, sheep and a couple of cows, and we make cheese which we sell from home and at farmer's markets. We are very passionate about what we do, and would like to share our lives with willing volunteers. We believe in eating well and produce much of our own food. We enjoy good company and stimulating conversation - although our English is limited - and are in need of helping hands for a range of tasks including animal care and gardening. If you have a love of animals, enjoy the great outdoors, and would like to experience real rural Italian life, then drop us a line!
