Organic Educational Farm
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
CTL Ireland – the Center for Travel and Learning - is an Irish based organisation committed to promote responsible volunteering in Irish communities. Our staff has years of experience supporting international volunteers and placing them in local projects. We are driven to provide a positive and sustainable impact alongside our local partners. Our volunteer programs involve an immersion within local communities and the Irish culture. The programs allow participants contribute their skills and energy to support local projects in achieving their goals. Programs are also designed to encourage participants to learn and reflect on their experience. We support individuals and groups all throughout their program, from the orientation workshop until the final evaluation. All volunteers start their program in friendly and vibrant city of Cork before joining their host project.
💼 What the programme involves
CTL is collaborating with one organic farm. The farm is firmly committed to the principles of organic food production and strives to enhance the natural habitats on the farm by keeping bees, organic free range chickens, organic beef, vegetables and fruits. The farm is also focusing on engaging visitors in the farm activities such as school and community groups.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Volunteers will live in local host family accommodation allowing you to get a real sense of life in an Irish family and community. Host families are based within walking distance of the project or near a public transport that allow the volunteer to reach the project easily. Family come in all shapes and sizes (e.g. parents and children, single host mother etc.)
🍲 Food
Meals will be provided along with a packed lunch as needed.
