Sophie is always busy either in the kitchen or doing farm work . It was rewarding to help her and we achieved some work together in the veggie patch .

We enjoyed having Philippe here with us. He was easy to work with and it's good to see another fruit tree enthusiast.
His knowledge of trees and grafting was very welcomed ☺️

Despite the fact I made an ankle sprain ,I enjoyed my time with Hipolito and Louise .
It is important to note that both spanish and english are used at the Finca . Sometimes , I struggle to talk to Hipolito ,as my spanish is a bit basic , but he is always patient with us .
Thanks a lot to you both .

I very much enjoyed having Philippe to stay and am delighted with what he accomplished while here. I found him to be very pleasant, hard-working, obliging, and helpful with a good sense of humour and profound knowledge of growing and planting. He is a true gardener - and cooks too! Thanks a lot Philippe and I hope you will return again sometime.
