Detalhes

Descrição
We (myself, my husband, three local employees and our children of 1, 6 and 10 years old) run a small ecological family farm, a so-called “chakra”, in Uruguay, near Montevideo. We grow a great variety of vegetables and fruits, which we sell at the local organic market in Montevideo and shops specialising in organic products. We also have chicken, several dogs and cats.

We are looking for open-minded, easy-going and flexible persons, who like being around people and to bring in their own ideas. We offer a beautiful location, an insight in our farming and a friendly atmosphere. You will be a part of the family.

We had a great time at Mathias and Herman's place. From the beginning we felt like part of the team and enjoyed the many good conversations with Mathias, Herman and the other voluntarios. One of the highlights was definitely the excellent food we got every day. Honestly, we already miss the fresh fruits and vegetables and the delicious dishes that… read more

I’m not sure where to start, this Workaway experience was absolutely amazing. I immediately felt at home and welcomed in this place.

I felt much stronger and connected to the nature after a days work, and ready to relax in the hammock. I really enjoyed cooking for everyone and learning how to make tarts! I loved how passionate Mathias and Herman… read more

I spent an amazing month with this family and was able to participate in all parts of the farm- planting, weeding, harvesting, market, and leaned a ton with the whole family! I had a great time hanging with the kids and cooking and sharing meals at the beautiful outdoor long wooden table. Thanks again for everything!

Simon was an excellent volunteer! He arrived when our family was going through a tough time and thanks to him we managed to overcome various challenges.

Simon stayed with us for four months and we could fully trust him. We soon realized we could have confidence in him and hand over tasks that require high responsibility. Simon was great with our… read more

I stayed at Matias and Serena's amazing farm for about 2 weeks and enjoyed every minute of it. Throughout my time there I helped with vastly different projects, some more exciting than others, but all were a valuable use of time. The intelligence and care of this family was impressive, warm, and welcoming.

Thank you for allowing me to help out,… read more

Tuvimos la oportunidad de vivir con esta familia por casi un mes y medio, ¡y qué maravillosa experiencia!

Ante todo, son gente muy buena, acogedora, e interesante. Mathias, el padre de la familia, es un hombre digno de admiración. Trabaja sin cesar, pero siempre encuentra tiempo para charlar con los voluntarios. Gracias a él, aprendimos… read more muchísimo acerca de la vida de su familia en la chacra, de la realidad en Montevideo y en Uruguay, y mucho más. Serena, su esposa, también fue una anfitriona excelente, siempre asegurándose de que teníamos todo lo necesario para sentirnos cómodos. Apreciamos mucho su buen humor, la confianza que nos demostró con sus niños, y, especialmente, la invitación al zoológico, donde pasamos un día inolvidable. ¡Y los niños! Ellos llenaron nuestros días en la chacra con alegría. Enseñarles inglés siempre fue un verdadero placer, pero ellos también nos enseñaron a nosotros, con una seriedad que iba mucho más allá de sus años. Si tienen la oportunidad, hablen con Germán, un hombre cultivado que ha tenido una vida muy interesante. Tiene mucho que compartir, y siempre escuchamos sus relatos sobre sus viajes y sobre la historia de Uruguay con la más alta interés. Finalmente, Alberto, quien trabaja en la chacra, siempre nos saludó con cordialidad, y fue muy respetuoso con nosotros. Mathias y toda la familia nos ayudó mucho con el español, y por eso les estamos muy agradecidos.

Vivimos en el gallinero, al cual nos acostumbramos después de un par de días. El trabajo en la chacra a veces no se parecía al trabajo: por ejemplo, recoger naranjas y ciruelas en la frescura de la mañana, y hacer de ellas mermelada a la sombra de un árbol. A veces sí era trabajo (por ejemplo, sacar los interminables yuyos), pero un trabajo placentero, al aire libre, donde uno se siente en contacto con la tierra y escucha el canto de los pájaros. Mathias y Serena siempre explicaron las tareas de una forma clara y concisa.

Todos los días libres fuimos a explorar Montevideo. Mathias y Serena siempre nos llevaron a la parada del ómnibus, y nos recogieron al volver.

Les estamos muy agradecidos por todo lo que hicieron para nosotros, por habernos dado esta oportunidad única. Les deseamos muchísimo éxito en todos sus proyectos presentes y futuros en la chacra. ¡Esperamos verlos otra vez!

That could be one of the most beautiful "chacras" (small farms) near Montevideo, with many citrus & fig trees, vines and a large array of organic fresh products that are sold in local markets.

It was a short, but wonderful experience!
I wish I could have stayed longer at this beautiful place.
Picking all the fresh fruits and veggies was like a dream for me. The hard work that it needs for organic products taught me to appreciate even more the food we buy and eat.
