WINE GROWER CERTIFIED ORGANIC
Family Farm located in the West Algarve, 3km from Lagos. Old Algarvian’s farm which reborn in 2000. We produce mostly wine but also almonds
We enjoy meeting new people with their own experience and initiative.
We like to open our farm to people with true good feelings for nature that love working outside. We are looking for woofers that like teamwork, being autonomous and reliable.
We are searching for people who are willing to stay for at least 1 month and that already have experience with construction and/or agricultural backgroung.
We only accept volunteers older than 22 years old.
Accomodation is very simple and basic.
Volunteers sleep in a nice and small house, made from a container and covered in wood.
Shower (WITH hot water) has a roof but the walls are very rustic.
The toilet is a compost toilet, which means it has no water - it works with wood chips
It is a beautiful place full of positive energy and great for people seeking a simple life experience, contact with nature and learning the daily life of a farm.
Volunteers are responsible for preparing their own meals. We provide all the ingredients.
If you have a special request regarding food, we can talk about it.
Internet access near the main house.
As we already have 3 dogs - 1 girl and 2 boys - it is not easy to receive a new animal visitor. If you are traveling with your pet friend, please tell us in advance and explain us his characteristics/bahaviour, so we can decide if if we have the conditions to host him/her too.
Please bring natural hygiene products, as we don't want to contaminate our water and soil. Thank you!
