Description
Hello WorkAway Friends!
Welcome! This is our dream come true, a 3 acre Farm and Eco-Lodge.
It is a fairly new project, having started only in June 2022, so every helping hand is welcome and appreciated!
We are located right in the middle of The Colombian Andes, 15 minutes away from a picturesque little town called El Retiro in Antioquia, Colombia. We are also 30 minutes from the Jose María Córdova Airport and 50 minutes from the beautiful and famous city of Medellín!
Do not hesitate to contact us, and see you around!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We're a traditional Colombian family, educated abroad but with deep roots and an intense love for all Colombian things. If you're looking to learn about Arriero culture and many more things, you're at the right place.
Help
Any and all help is welcome, we have many ideas for improving the conditions of our rescued animals, the farm and the garden! Ask us more about our projects! We need help with the social media presence, also with evaluating the irrigation system of our small organic farm, removing a couple of small dead avocado trees and planting flowers.

What else ...
You will be 40 minutes away from Medellin, one of the most beloved cities in Latin America. We regularly go there to visit our relatives, the ride is lovely, and we will always bring you with us and show you around so you can experience the best of the countryside and the city life. Also, 5 of the most beautiful Towns in Colombia are within a two hour ride (El Retiro, Rionegro, La Ceja, Jardin, Jerico and Santa Barbara). In otherwords, you won't be bored. Also, being close to the airport (18 minutes), you'll be able to jump on cheap flights and discover other destinations.
