    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Our Farm has a great location. Is on a rural comunity, surrounded by mountains and a clean and clear river goes thru the land. We love to harvest and cook so volunteers have a great chance to learn to cook and try good food. Mainly we cook vegetarian food. We are bilingual, Spanish ond English.
    We travel the Island regularly, because our families are from other town so volunteers have a great chance to visit differen regions of the island.
