Hello there and welcome!
** Last minute OK **
*** PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND FULLY BEFORE APPLYING ***
*** Minimum stay is 3/4 weeks, ideally longer stays ***
We are an organic homestead farm in the Terra Alta of Catalunya. We have olive and almond trees and we live 100% off grid. We are a private family homestead. We are near Gandesa, Tarragona, in the middle of the countryside. We are a couple in their sixties with a background in law and neuroscience, enjoying nature and the peace of rural life after a life working for big corporations and being entrepreneurs. We were both sailors.
Our preferred language to interact with volunteers is English. Although we can also talk in Catalan and French.

Objetivos de sostenibilidad de las NU que intenta conseguir este anfitrión
Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
We like to share meals with you while we talk about local and world issues. We like to hear about you and your views on different issues.
We will prepare a “clotxa”, a Terra Alta typical breakfast. We also ask you to prepare a typical dish of your countries of origin or adoption.
The “batalla del Ebre”, a key battle of the Spanish fascist 1936 coup d’etat, took place nearby. We like to take our volunteers to the International Brigades exhibit in La Fatarella so you can understand why and how many people from all over the world came to fight fascism during the Franco uprising.
Ayuda
We will help you learn and understand about the tasks you will be doing. We will provide you with very good accommodation. We are seeking your help in taking care of our farm, our chicken, the almond and olive trees, our garden, doing some dry stone retaining wall rebuilding and general maintenance tasks.You will be expected to help 5 hours a day five days a week.
We welcome reliable, self motivated, physically fit volunteers who like being in nature.
Vegetarians preferred. Must be happy to eat eggs. We cannot host you if you have any allergy or medical condition that does not allow you to work.
No alcohol, no smoking and no drugs.
If you are very tidy and clean you will be most welcome. If not, ….

Alojamiento
You will enjou a fully independent small off-grid cottage in the middle of an almond grove. It comes equiped with a very comfortable bed, a sofa / futon, a kitchenette, a wood stove, a cold shower (also a hot water one for very cold winter days), a bike and a guitar.
We prepare and share breakfast and lunch during weekdays. You will be expected to get your food for the rest of your meals from the supermarkets nearby.
Algo más...
Best way to get to Gandesa, Tarragona, is by bus from Barcelona or Zaragoza with the bus company. Or alternatively by train to Mora la Nova.
We have hosted volunteers from many countries. You are all welcome. Although if you are not a EU resident you will need to have valid travel and health insurance and the right visa.
Ours is a remote rural area, so do not expect to find nightlife or crowds nearby. Nature, solitude, meditation, reading, music, wind, birds, foxes, medicinal plants and plenty more is what you can do and what you will find here. You will be able to bike on amazing trails, go swimming in the river and go shopping to the village if you need to.
We prioritize people with several prior volunteer experiences in farms. If you have no prior volunteering experiences, please tell us why you think you would like to contribute your work to our farm.
