  Description

  Hello! I’m Jhoselyn, and I’m excited to share a glimpse of my daily life on our family farm. We’re located just 40 minutes from Latacunga, Ecuador, a city known as the "Pensil de los Andes" due to its unique geographical position. On our farm, we focus on caring for domestic animals and producing pasture using ecological techniques. My goal is to promote and strengthen sustainable agricultural practices.
  
  The rural area of Latacunga offers a special opportunity to connect with nature. It’s a place where you can enjoy open space, tend to a garden or orchard, and take in breathtaking views of the Cotopaxi Volcano and Los Ilinizas mountains. You can also interact with the friendly local community and even rent a bike for a scenic ride through the countryside.
  
  As a volunteer on the farm, you’ll not only have the chance to make a positive impact, but you’ll also become part of our community. We currently have two people caring for the animals and two are in charge of fodder production, and we welcome help in both areas. You’ll have the chance to immerse yourself in the farm's daily activities and contribute to its growth.
  
  Come join us for a unique and rewarding experience that will stay with you long after your trip!
