What else ...

We are at 120Km from Rome. In our area there is a lot to do if you like walking in the countryside and hiking up in the mountains. Our region has been devastated from the 2016th earthquakes and there aren't shops or cities close to here. However it is possible to travel by bus few chilometres and there is anything you may need. Our volunteer will eat directly at our dinner table same food as our... expecially meat and pasta based meals... mostly organic and produced directly in our farm.
We run an agriturismo and camping place... in same periods of the year (august and some weekends) all accommodations will be required and there may be the possibility to have to spend some night in our tend in the camping place...
