5 Hectares of papaya, mango, lime, coconut, maracuya and nanche

Located near Puerto Escondido in the state of Oaxaca in a beautiful mangrove with beach, grass and scrub areas. We neighbor a lagoon next to a beach famous for its waves and surfing. There are many activities like permaculture, ecological agriculture and construction and observation of nature.

The site is being developed as an ecovillage, nature reserve and nature information centre for the local community and visitors.

Lodging for volunteers is 2 miles away from the farm and it is a house with all the services (pool, bathroom and ceiling fans).
We provide mainly vegetarian food.

Hi, I am interested in coming to your farm sometime between mid feb and mid march for a couple of weeks, but just wanted to check if this is possible. It will be my first experience with WWOOFing, so I don't really know how far in advance i have to say that I will be coming. I have experience with growing vegetables and am very willing to learn other skills. I look forward to your reply.

I am traveling in southern Mexico starting in about 2 weeks. I will be flying down in early February and visiting Palenque for a while and then I would like to spend some solid time on a farm. Yours sounds like an amazing place that I would love to get involved with. Let me know if there are openings in the next couple of months and if so I would love to discuss the details of my working on your farm.

I do some work with edible mushroom cultivation. Perhaps you would be interested in trying some things with that.
thanks,
Nicholas

Hi there!

I will be in Mexico City in as little as two weeks, and would love to travel to volunteer with you for 6 to 8 weeks if that is convenient.

I have recently joined WWOOF Mexico and look forward to being able to support the work of organic farms such as yourselves.
I have little experience beyond my own small vegetable patch at home but I am very willing and keen to learn and certainly not afraid of hard work!
At the moment I am trying to pick up some Spanish and hope to improve it during my stay.
I would really appreciate it if you could get back to me as soon as you can so that I can confirm dates in the next week or so,

thank you ,

Sophie

hello,
I am currently staying in Quintana Roo (Playa del Carmen area) and would love to know what sort of work you might have available in the near future. I have no real time frame in mind as far as how long I'd volunteer, mainly whatever works best for you. this would be my first wwoof experience but I have worked on farms in the past and am familiar with the more basic aspects of agriculture. I am looking to learn as much as possible about organic growing and sustainability. thanks for any information,
stacey

Hello,
I will be traveling to southern Mexico in the month of April with my boyfriend. We are both WWOOF members and are eager to get out of city life and into farm living. Our travel plans are open ended. We are planning to travel from farm to farm from Mexico City up to the Yucatan Peninsula. We wish to help on your farm and are planning our trip based on farm's needs. Will you need help on your farm during the months of april or may? Thank you for your time.
