  What we do and how?
  I am developing a sustainable organic farm aiming to change the way vegetables and meat is produced nowadays. With the help of the latest technology, as I am a programmer, I am implementing an automatic irrigation system, water land extraction/treatment to take the iron out of it and in the future: water, food and open/close system for the chickens as well, using arduino boards in C++. The idea is to sell this gadget worldwide so anybody can have a single plant, a full greenhouse with vegetables or a cannabis plant, controlled by Whatsapp, letting you know steps you have to follow, isnt it great? !
  
  What we produce?
  We grow and sell in our local store from March to December:
  Cannabis (for oils and skin lotions), cañamo, Platense tomato, Cherry tomato, pepers, brocoli, eggplant, strawberries, lettuce, chard, eggs from the 100 chickens, dried vegetables and infusions with a solar dehydrator.
  
  Goals:
  We aim to have organic and 100% made by us: milk, cheese, meat, cloth and shoes out of Cañamo, personal hygiene products like shampoo and soap out of Ortigas, medical infusions, dried soups, and a lot more!
  
  What can we share with volunteers?
  We want volunteers to have more fun, get different cultures together and share a new vision for our future!
  - An independent Volunteers house with 4 beds that have curtains for privacy.
  - Bikes to have fun and go to the city (8km away)!
  - If the owner is not traveling: yoga classes, daily car rides to the city center and tons of fun!
  - Private bathroom
  - Kitchen inside volunteers house.
  - We include breakfast (eggs and coffee) and we offer really cheap veggies if we are in harvesting times.
  - We have a complete Skatepark complex (for bmx, skate and rollers) as a side activity right inside the farm! (check the photos)
  - We have a 11 meters pool for swimming and refreshing !
  - Guitar, ping pong, a cinema night with the proyector.
  
  What are volunteers duties and workload:
  - 3 and 1/2 hours of work per day of stay (you can choose the schedule, as we are super flexible).
  - After 2 days and a half of stay/work, you have 1 day off !
  - Prepare of the soil for planting, transplanting, preparing our own fertilizers, feeding the chickens, cutting veggies/fruits for the solar dehydrator, between other tasks.
  
  Farm location: we will send you the google maps link in messaging

  Algo más...

  The farm is 8km away from resistencia Chaco (the place is in the city countryside) you are 20 km away from corrientes, 6 hours away in a bus to reach “las cataratas del iguazu”, one of the 7 world wonders :). But the real treasure it’s our local people :).
