Description
Hello, my name is Bruno, I'm 38 years old and I take care of this place for my family. This property was abandoned for a long time and three years ago we restarted activities. Here we raise cattle and have a vegetable garden, an orchard and other animals, such as sheep, horses, chickens, pigs, for our work and sustenance. We would like people who can help with the planting and care of the animals. A couple of employees also live here with their 6 year old son. Many family and friends also show up to enjoy the place. On the property we have a reserve area with many birds, wild animals, trails, river and a lake where you can fish.

UN sustainability goals this host is trying to achieve
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Visitors will be able to experience how cattle raising works, how the cowboys work here, live with local residents and animals, in direct contact with nature, since the property has more than half of its area with preserved forest. Here we also raise fish, pigs, chickens and reuse resources on the property itself.
What we produce in excess we usually exchange with other residents in the vicinity.
As the property was reactivated just a few years ago, we still have many activities to implement, and we would like to rely on the experience of people to start sustainable projects to deal with the garden, our water, garbage, logging and replanting wood and others.
Our Workawayers will be able to choose the activities, available at the time, in which they most like to work, carrying out the same activities as the employees and owners.
Help
We need help watering the plants, the garden, feeding the animals and cleaning their enclosures, among other light general services.
