You like being outdoors, you like animals and hard physical work doesn't bother you? If so, then this volunteer project in Patagonia is right for you. Far to the south of the city of Puerto Montt in the Chilean Lake Region you can give back to society and get involved in community work. The project is carried out on one or more farms in the middle of the mountains of Patagonia. You will be surrounded by virgin nature, breathtaking landscapes and friendly people. Here you will learn a lot about working on a typical small Chilean farm. Most of the farms live a self-sufficient life and only buy a couple of things in far away supermarkets from time to time. In addition, you will get unadulterated insights into the Chilean culture and mentality as you live and work with locals. You too can share your own culture with them so that intercultural exchange takes place and you can learn a lot from each other.
Life in Patagonia can be rough and tough, especially in the long winter months. So the purpose of the community is to help each other and to benefit from each other. This concept is not rare in Chile and a great way to be independent of external products and goods.
Please keep in mind that due to extreme climate during winter we only offer this volunteer program during the Chilean spring, summer and autumn.
