Description
This is a family farm near Alicante in Spain where 3 projects coexist (2 non for profit organisations and one productive business). It's built on three main pillars. First the production of our olive oil, honey, mushrooms, and other organic produce. Second, our educational programs in which we cooperate with local schools and work with kids of all ages and third the renting of small garden plots for different people to grow their own vegetables. Furthermore, we have donkeys, chickens, ducks, geese and even one emu on the farm. Besides our orchards of different tree species, we also have a permaculture-style vegetable garden and many small areas which benches to enjoy nature. As a workawayer you will take part in the activities of the non for profit organisation , l and will take part in all the plant and tree care planted for the wildlife, the educational and ornamental gardens, and animal care .

Help
There are always a lot of tasks to be done at the farm depending on the season.
This includes taking care of our animals, working in the garden, weeding, general maintenance, tree care and so much more. We also always have an open ear to your ideas and projects.Languages spoken

You would have your own cozy caravan on the farm that has everything you need: a small kitchen, and an outside area to relax. The toilet and shower are outside. The wifi arrive in the caravan but it is not always the best one.
What else ...
We provide a bicycle from you with which you are in the city of Alicante in 20 minutes. There are plenty of bars, restaurants, cafes, and sites there. Furthermore, the next beach is a 15-minute bike ride away as well as the hills. So it does not matter if you are a nature lover or you prefer you explore the city. You will be able to reach both from our farm.
