Description
Hi everyone, our farm is a non-profit organization looking for volunteers. We live in a protected but accessible hamlet where between few people we share a very special place. We are located right on the edge of Teno Natural Park, we practice organic farming and try to be as connected to our environment as possible. My main project is about natural beekeeping as I teach the practice and run a little workshop on the farm. We are part of a bigger association which organize nature related courses so sometimes the place gets a little busy. The farm produces avocados, loquats, oranges, and veggies.

He is kind, open mind and always happy. I felt I met a real brother there! Thank you very much David!
