Description
Update
We are looking for some help with planting trees and making fences for our tree nursery by the end of April/ May 2026.
You should be happy to work outside, also in rougher conditions as it might be more rainy in this time of the year.
As we won't share the whole day together (school rhythm with early mornings, need of family time in the evening) this is a great offer for couples that also like to have time for theirselfs.
We are looking forward to hear from you!
Annual Overview 2026
January until April/ May: Farmwork, Gardening and Building projects
June until September: Housesitting
***HOUSESITTING***
from 1st of June to the 15th of September 2026
We are looking for a single person or a couple to stay on our farm while we are travelling for about three and half month.
The place to look after is in the most stunning countryside in the middle of Patagonia. You will live in a our cozy wood house overlooking the mountains and valleys of Patagonia.
The house is well equiped with wood ofens, a big kitchen, a bathroom with shower, bath and toilet and a separated bedroom with a doble bed.
Although living far of the beaten track in the middle of nature we have electricity, a very good internet connection and a hot water system. So the Housesitting is also a very good option for digital nomads.
June, July and August are the winter month here, so it can be rainy and also sometimes snowy. But there are also always nice and sunny days in between.
We provide you lots of firewood and a starter set of some basic food like potatos, flour, oats.
You can also help yourself with some saisonal vegetables from our garden and greenhouse tu create a healthy meal for you.
Our property is close to the beautiful river "Palena", waterfalls and an amazing old native forest.
In exchange we ask you to look after our friendly dog Cleo, 6 cuddly cats, 2 very nice horses, 3 friendly geese, 20 ducks and 18 chicken.
That means mainly feeding them and cleaning their places when necesary. If you are an experienced rider you are also welcome to ride our horses.
If you have more questions don't hesitate to ask!
Farmwork
We are a young artist family from Germany starting a new way of life in Chile/ Patagonia. We have a beautiful, huge piece of land surrounded with old native forest, crystal clear springs and rivers, waterfalls and the stunning mountain scenery of Patagonia.
Our girls are 10 and 13 years old and usually enjoy to get in contact with the workawayers.
We live together with 2 horses,1 dog, 6 cats, 28 chicken, 25 ducks and 3 geese. We have a huge garden and greenhouse to grow our own vegetables, herbs and fruits.
Help is always needed around the house, the garden and with the animals.
Our tasks include: gardening (cleaning/preparing beds, harvesting, processing, watering), feeding/caring for animals, building fences, small construction projects to maintain or expand the farm, sawing/splitting firewood, and cooking/washing up.
On rainy days, we work indoors on preserving the harvested products.
As we are still in the process of building our house and farm we are also very interested to take carpenters or people that are experienced in working with wood for making some furniture and some interior.
Also we are interested to take people that can teach playing the harp, the flute or like to introduce some other instruments to the girls.
If you are experienced in Barefoot trimming of horses you are also very welcome!
We are looking for open minded, motivated people which enjoy sharing work with us and like the outdoors.
Every winter ( June to September) we are looking for volunteers to take care of our house and our animals while we are travelling. For this period we are looking for a Housesitter that is able to stay at least 3 month.

Autres infos...
Although we are in the middle of nowhere, you can enjoy many outdoor activities just in front of our door: fishing in the river, horseback riding, rock climbing ( you have to bring your equipment), hiking in the mountains or to beautiful waterfalls. Friends of us are organizing boat trips and rafting on the river not far from our land. But most of all this area is a location for nature lovers because you find a lot of untouched and unexplored nature to relax.
