Description
We welcome volunteers willing to give us a hand on our organic vineyard and gardens. We also have other diverse projects such as DIY, etc.
Our property has wonderful views and the surrounding area has lots of walks. We are 10min walk from a village and close to a train station that serves Bordeaux, Bergerac and Sarlat.
Volunteers stay in a seperate part of our house with your own bathroom. We share meals and meal preparation (mostly vegetarian). We have friendly pets and lots of books. We also run self-catering accomodation units, wine classes and yoga sessions.
We'll involve you in as many tasks as you like and share with you the knowledge we have built up in two decades of organic farming. Our harvest is completely hand-picked and great fun.

We are keen to share our love of France and this region in particular and of organic and ecological living. We are 10 minutes walk from a vibrant village and 5 minutes drive or 15 mins cycle from a train station so lots of options for exploring the region.

The activities depend on the season. From late August specifically, we request help for harvesting grapes.
