Volunteering Abroad Shouldn't Cost the Earth

Finca in the Mountains Colombia

 

Description

We are a small and eco-conscious farm in the mountains, just one hour from Bogota. We built our cabins with wood and recycled materials; we use solar energy, collect rain water, make our own compost, and have a large natural garden where we grow different kinds of vegetables and some fruits. We rent 3 of the ecocabins so we have guests during weekends mainly.

We are looking for volunteers who want to learn and improve their skills in organic farming, helping us in the garden, planting trees, composting, taking care of the animals (dogs and cats), some wood construction, cleaning and cooking.
