📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Podere Pompone is a family-run farm located in the hillside of Tuscany.

The job will be explain by experienced locals. The work will start early in the morning (8.00) to avoid the hot temperatures of mid day. Ideally volunteers will work for up to 6 hours.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accommodation will be in shared tents in the farm’s area. There is a bathroom that is furnished with hot water showers. Volunteers will cook together with the host or food will be prepared by themselves according to the schedule of the day.

📍 About the location
