Description
We are a coffee farm in Manizales, Colombia. We run a very cool place, near to the city but far enough to get lost on your own thoughts.
We have 6 old houses, that are representative of the UNESCO's recognized "Coffee Cultural Landscape".
Our farm is small enough to be seen in just one day, but so complex in biodiversity that one full year will not be long enough to really discover it.
We use the traditional method of coffee growing, and processing. All our coffee is grown 1700 mts. or more above sea level.
We welcome volunteers that understand that working at a farm is a demanding job, with odd hours and very physical.
We want people with REAL experience in carpentry, masonry, painting and any other building skill. You must provide proof of insurance and a good status to be in the country.
People with REAL experience in photography or video are also welcome.
Sorry, short notice or walk ins are not appreciated. We plan our needs 4-8 weeks in advance.
