necessary to provide solid educational work projects for our interns multiple sessions each session is packed to the brim with different learning opportunities for those who have the opportunity to continue their time at huerta de vida we suggest that you sign up for multiple sessions we ask that interns plan trips elsewhere during the time in between sessions so that we have a chance to rest and prepare for the next wave of interns it s cool that a variety of folks foreign and local have chosen to be here more than just once we can suggest many beautiful adventures around argentina and chile that deserve your time living in community people live learn and work best together and get more done when they understand not just what and how to do something but what the overall objective is we will provide leadership teaching coaching friendship empowerment encouragement and reality checks feedback we guide our interns through the work projects our priority is to share our knowledge with

day orientation for all participants community meetings happen once a week work schedule on average our schedule reflects 6 7 hours of physical activity day and 3 5 hours of siesta rest and personal time after lunch individual chores are done everyevery day including days off to keep everybody happy each day starts punctually with individual chores tea or coffee brief organizing meeting a strong start in the morning is key to our objectives we call it the hour of power actually it s more like 90 minutes of power but that doesn t rhyme don t worry a delicious breakfast greets our return from the field our schedule is designed to minimize working in the strong sun we do garden tasks first thing in the morning and after the sun mellows in the late afternoon when the sun is intense we will work in the shade frequently in natural construction as much as possible we will stick to the schedule yet at other times we stick to the task at hand until it s done rather than worry about the time folks who are doing particularly strenuous work are to receive plenty of love we leave no worker behind real important a big part of being here is learning how to be productive however interning at huerta de vida is not a j o b we do our best to offer wise leadership and comradeship we consciously choose not to work with folks who need an external authority figure to boss them around work life

eating straight from the garden baking in our cob oven sun drying veggies i was here last january and my experience there was completely awesome i learned a lot about organic farming i helped build with mud and straw and many many other interesting things and i had the chance to practice my english in my own country but above all that i had the opportunity of sharing beautiful moments with super sensitive wise connected people it was a full experience because i improved my knowledge about plants but also i improve my character and evolve my being i left huerta de vida knowing that i want to come back sometime and the sooner the better now i m growing some seeds that margot gave me they are growing strong and beautiful some general things if you are thinking of going or not to visit here 1 just go you won t regret 2 the food is delicious and you can cook for the rest and receive a lot of love back for your favor 3 they have a very good library it doesn t matter if you are an english or spanish speaker on the farm you have books in both languages 4 growing food organically is an experience that changes your mind forever you won t be the same person after you discover how powerful you are working with nature instead of against it anita lanita buenos aires argentina 2011 2012 season this place is truly an amazing and unique experience to me it almost seemed to be more of an educational center than a farm simply because of the wealth of knowledge that margot and vida possess about sustainable agriculture public health and food policy they were unbelievable resources for a myriad of subjects and that is what separates here from the other farms i visited they are willing to teach and share all they know with whomever is eager to learn also all of this is done in an inviting caring environment everyone that partakes in this little community does their share happily and enthusiastically which makes it all the more enjoyable there is always interesting conversation and fun and creative post dinner activities whether that means a card game farm olympics a talent show or simply a fire out back which makes such a wonderful environment to work and play without a doubt this was the best farm experience i had in all of south america and i cannot thank margot and vida enough wes b usa 2010 2011 season at 7 14 pm no comments sunday august 21 2011 spring 2011 many
