My name is Rosie Gist, I am 27 years old and currently live in London. Through working in the coffee industry for the past 3 years- where I have learnt a lot about direct trading, growing, crop maintenance and sustainability- and also having spent time in India and Nepal (where the connection between growing and consumers was really made transparent to me, first hand, for the first time), I am keen to immerse myself in hands-on experience and learn more about organic growing.
While I am a keen gardener and grower at home- I have transformed our rented back garden over the past year and a half and am now growing mange tout, basil, peas, tomatoes, chives, sage and sunflowers in the space- my knowledge so far is limited and my learning directed by as-and-when the space and season requires it. Should you still be taking volunteers at your amazing farm in San Miguel de Allende, it would be a wonderful opportunity to work with and learn from you and your land.
I arrive in Mexico at the beginning of October 2015 and look to spend time in central Mexico until the beginning of November. Do you have any availability at that time and would you be keen to communicate further? I'd ideally be looking to work for 2-3 weeks.
Thank you very much and I look forward to hearing from you soon. In the meantime, keep well.
Best wishes,
Rosie

Hello,
I would love to see more photos of your farm. Please upload some when you have the opportunity.
I worked a season with my daughter in an extensive asparagus field. We cut every other day, weeded every other day. The farm supplied to local restaurants. I am not familiar with other types of food, but the work must be very similar. How many hours to you expect your workers to do in a day? At what time of day?
I plan to live permanently in Baja by late fall next year. But for now I need to live simply and get tired from a day's work. I am very interested in sustainable living. I want to experience it, to live it. I also do not speak Spanish. Although I do understand many words if spoken moderately.
We are a couple coming to Mexico next wednesday. We will be available at the end of November until Christmas, and we will be glad to work with you in your farm in San Miguel. We love to take care of vegetables, and we also want to learn more about ecologic life styles. We speak french, english and a correct spanish.
We invite you to look at our profile to know us a little more.
Your profile seems very peaceful and appealing! My name is Adele I am a 26 year old Canadian. I have been volunteering on farms for a while now. The goal in mind as always been to learn how to build a self-sustaining organic farm that takes as little as possible away from the earth. I would love the opportunity to learn from you and your land. Also I would like to mention I am no stranger to hard work and I love doing it, it's a great feeling at the end of the day to be able to see all you have accomplished.
I would love to visit in January if there is any space available. If not please yet me know any other dates that are open, my schedule tends to be flexible as a traveling wwoofer.
Me llamo Simón, soy francés y tengo 24. Estoy viajando con un amigo a través México y vamos a llegar en el estado de guanajuato por el fin del mes de diciembre. Queremos encontrar una granja como la tuya por 2 o 3 semanas (hasta el 15 de enero mas o menos). Tenemos 2 experiencias de wwoofing : una cerca de playa del Carmen (perros,gatos,gallineas,...) y una en el sur del DF (trabajo de la tierra, plantas,...). Estamos aprendiendo el español, nos gusta trabajar y podemos hacer comida también.

My name is EJ and I am interested in Wwoofing from Friday 1/22 through Sunday 1/31 ( give or take a day or so). Are you hosting any volunteers during those days?
A little about me - I am a California native. I have previous wwoofing experience in Japan. I am looking into expanding my experience in Central America. I enjoy learning about subsistence farming, and doing hands-on activities such as growing vegetables / crops, harvesting mushrooms, and helping out at a local farmers market.
I speak English, Korean, and Japanese. My Spanish is elementary level, but I'm striving to improve a bit by bit every day =)
Hola! Me llamo Violaine y estoy muy interesada en ayudar en la la granja algunas semanas. Soy francesa y vivi en Canada los dos ultimos anos pero queria irme al sur durante el invierno, y tambien disfrutar de mi viaje para aprender la agricultura. Los ultimos meses complete un certificado en permacultura que me apasionaba pero era muy teorico y mi meta ahora es de trabajar y aprender. Ademas tengo muchas ganas de ver mas ejemplos de vidas off grid y autosustenables porque es lo que quiero suceder por mi vida tambien.
Estoy en Guadalajara en este momento, me gusteria mucho empezar el wwoofing la proxima semana o dos o tres semanas mas tarde despues de otra granja, y puedo quedarme dos, tres o mas semanas dependiendo de sus necesidades. Hablo ingles con fluidez y intento progresar en espanol!
Muchas gracias por su interes,
Violaine
Me llamo Marta, estoy ahora mismo en Querétaro. Tengo muchas ganas de aprender a cultivar orgánicamente. No tengo experiencia previa, pero si muchas ganas de aprender. Puedo estar 2 semanas, o quizá más, dependiendo. Hablo inglés, viví 1 año en Canadá y otro en Nueva Zelanda.
Soy Abraham estoy interesado en su granja. Acabo de iniciarme en esto así que aun no sé muy bien como funciona, pero quisiera comunicarme con usted o ustedes para más información. Yo estudio antropología y tengo 22 años. Espero su respuesta.
Hola, mi nombre es Adrian de Queretaro (Mexico) y me gustaría mucho contribuir con ustedes, no tengo mucha experiencia solo un gran espíritu por aprender sobre nuestro medio ambiente y como podemos estar mas en amornia con el.
I'm very interested in working at your farm this coming summer. I have read through your farm information page and it looks like it would be a fabulous fit. I would be traveling with my children, ages 10 and 8. Both are strong workers on their farm in the Pacific Northwest. I speak fluent Spanish and teach English at our local Elementary so I am available during our summer break, basically anytime between the last week of June and the beginning of September. My goal would be to work with your farm for a week or two as you have availability. Please let me know if you have space for us and when during those months might work best? Thanks
After reading many books (like 5) about permaculture, organic farming and eco-building; and visiting a couple of farms here in México... I want to get more experience, interchange ideas while I help other people's project.
About eating, I eat a lot of vegetables (no meat) and I can cook happily (if it's necesary), even more, I have researched a lot about how to keep healthy by eating health stuff...
Please, let me know if I can join to your team.
I let you my email expecting your answer. jose.chagolla@gmail.com
