Description
Come and join the work in our recently acquired farm. We are a family of 5, Antonio (the husband), Carolina (the wife) Dusan (12), Antonia (9), and Thomas (3). In 2020 we moved from Puerto Natales, chilean Patagonia to a farm in Frutillar, the farm was an old milking farm which we converted it into a regenerative farm.
The farm is located 38 Km from Frutillar.
We hav beef cattle, mobile pastured raised eggs, a small vegetable garden for the homestead and planning to start a bigger commercial vegetable garden. In the future would like to do a little bit of tourism as well.
The farm is 97 hectares with native forest, pastures and a beautifull 1,5 kilometer riverside were we swim and do kayaking in summer.Types of help and learning opportunities
