Help in a educacional farm in San Juan, Argentina

Pasé una semana muy linda en la Granja! Lucia y Pedro son muy hospitalarios y muy interesente. Aprendí mucho sobre el trabajo de la tierra y las propiedades de las plantas. La granja esta hermosa con todos los animales. ¡Y la deliciosa comida! Gracias de nuevo por todo!

Nos quedamos 3 lindas semanas con Lucía y Pedro que desde al primer minuto nos trataron como familia y fue difícil la despedida... La Granja Tía Nora es un lugar hermoso, tranquilo y de paz. Lucía sabe mucho a respecto de permacultura e agroecologia e se animava em pasarnos estos conocimientos (aprendemos montón). Quedavamos muy a vontade em la… read more casa de ellos cuando reuníamos para las comidas ( muy ricas) y teníamos para nosotros "La casa de los viajeros".

Nós quedamos três lindas semanas en la granja con Pedro y Lucía y fue una un aprendizado muy grande. Nos dejarán muy libres para crear un sugerir nuevas ideas, aprendemos a construir cosas nuevas y manusear herramientas, y nos encantó cuidar de los animales. Desfrutamos muchos momentos con ellos y nos sentimos muy bien recebidos. Son una linda… read more familia, somos muy gratos y vamos llévalos en nuestro corazón.
Gracias por todo Pedro y Lucía un beso.

This place is absolute recommendable!! The place is very peaceful and beautiful, Pedro and Lucía are very welcoming and friendly people, the work is varied: watering und planting the plants, feeding the animals, helping out in the restaurant and looking after the school classes which visit the farm. Thank you very much for the great time I had… read more with your family...all the best for you, Lucia y Pedro!

Aunque solo estuve con Pedro y Lucia una semana fue una experiencia muy enriquecedora. Me trataron super bien y la comida muuuy buena. Gracias por todo y hasta siempre!

It was a wonderful experience helping here and staying with the family of Pedro and Lucia. I only stayed a week due to my tight schedule, but very happy with the variety of learning opportunities they offered to me: receiving school visits, packing raisins, milking goats, attending the local market, harvesting the vegetables, feeding animals etc.… read more The accommodation is comfortable, and the food is very fresh and nutrition-balanced. Lucia and Pedro are very friendly, and introduced our volunteers to their friends and extended family. Thank you Lucia and Pedro for this unforgettable experience!

Wonderful experience! Pedro and Lucia are really welcoming. Food is awesome and the accomodation nice, you just have to prepare a fire for the shower, you can chill out afterwards looking at sunset in front of the fireplace. The work is really various: plant trees and vegetables, give food to animals, take the milk from the cow and goats, sell… read more products on the markets, etc... it is 6 hours per day, 6 days a week. Pedro and Lucia were very comprehensive and patient with our terrible spanish. We also learned how to make empenadas, get on a tv show and met lot of harmful people there. Thanks again for all of that! Adios!

We spend 6 days working at their wonderful granja; learning Spanish, feeding animals, gardening and our favorite: milking the cow and the goats!

Words cannot even begin to describe the experience we had on this workaway. James and I had only intended to stay on this beautiful Granja for two weeks but Pedro and Lucia and their beautiful family captured our hearts and it was nearly impossible to leave so before we knew it two weeks had turned ino ten. Im pretty sure that had our visas been… read more valid for longer this is where we would still be.
The work is most definitely not work. It is so much fun to work with the animals everyday and help in the garden. Our spanish was at near zero when we arrived but this was never a problem. We gained so much experience. Every week was different whether it was working a different local ferias, fighting bush fires or gaining vetenary practice by injecting different animals. Lucia makes amazing food, so good and so healthy that I actually feel cleansed leaving the farm. I recommend this workaway to everyone and I challenge everyone to go here and stay longer than they had planned. There is guaranteed to be something that will entice you to stay, the weather, the animals, the tranquility or the outstanding hospitality. We will definitley be back here as soon as we can.

Thank you again so much Pedro and Lucia.

Our experience in Albardon working for Pedro was good overall. We especially enjoyed working with the animals, but most of the time we worked in the garden.

The food was good for a vegetarian's diet.

Thanks a lot Pedro for the nice time!

I really enjoyed working with Pedro and Lucia. They are genuinely kind people which I appreciated dearly from from the day I arrived until the day I left. This was the first workaway location that I was actually a bit sad to leave behind.

The working hours are normally four hours in the morning, and two hours in the late afternoon, six days a… read more week. Work involves feeding the animals, working in the garden, and special projects. The food is wonderful and there is plenty of it! Meals are eaten together and great conversation is had by all. This is a great place to improve your Spanish as Pedro and Lucia are extremely patient and willing to help you learn the language.

There are not really any tourist-type activities to do in the local area, so if you are looking for a wild party on your day off, this is probably not the place for you.

Whether you are a first-time workawayer or an experienced workawayer, I highly recommend working with Pedro and Lucia on the Granja!

This is a great workaway opportunity and I had a lot of fun working with Pedro and Lucia on their farm. It is a great project that they have built and I would highly recommend this experience. Many thanks Pedro y Lucia!

Thank you Pedro & Lucia for an incredible time! Best of luck with everything! Ben & Alice

Myself and Sarah worked on the farm for nearly three weeks, Pedro & Lucia were more then accommodating, friendly and patient with our terrible espanol, which improved drastically in our time on the farm! The work was awesome, loved the animals. The accommodation was really good as was the food. Lastly every single volunteer with us was amazing and… read more made it the experience it was.

I had a wonderful week with Pero and Lucia. They have a fantastic project to which I was proud to contribute. They are really lovely people. We were able to eat ouside most days despite it being "winter" in Argentina. The food was amazing and I really felt welcomed into life on the Finca. I'd love to return for a longer period.
