Volunteer Finca Rio Perla is a farm where you can experience organic gardening, working with animals, tree planting, and lots of other farm and tourism related activities.

 

Get a chance to milk cows by hand and make cheese, and other foods.

 

Get a chance to learn to cook new dishes and also help us by cooking your specialties.

 

Be comfortable to practice your Spanish, make cultural connections, meet new friends in Costa Rica, begin life-long friendships with volunteers from other countries, and of course enjoy amazing waterfalls. 

 

The average work-day is about 5-6 hours, and the work week is 6 days.  We will have both assigned and optional tasks, and we hope that your own ideas and creativity can also generate different work options.

 

 

The cost of our program includes lodging and meals.  The program does not cover the cost of transportation, to Costa Rica, or any trips or tours you choose to take while you volunteer with us (with advance notice we can arrange transportation to the farm from Siquirres or Earth University).  You should have personal travel

insurance.

I'd hope not as well, having worked 6-day weeks on farms, paying for housing and especially food doesn't seem enjoyable.

I think what they are saying is that lodging and meals are included but that transportation to get there is not...kinda confusing but I don't think they are charging...at least I would hope not
