Eco Farming & Agriculture in Guatemala

In Guatemala, sustainable farming is a popular practice; however, it comes with some challenges. Local farmers need extra hands in the field to maintain strong production using eco-friendly methods. You’ll work alongside them just outside Antigua, learning about eco farming while volunteering on coffee and macadamia nut farms.

You’ll take part in each stage of the farming process—from planting and harvesting to processing the crops. This is a hands-on, physical project, so come ready to work hard.

Volunteers at the coffee cooperative may:
• Plant and prune coffee trees and maintain the nursery
• Harvest, process, roast, and package coffee beans
• Fertilize fields using organic material like coffee husks
• Help with reforestation and supplemental farming projects
• Translate for farm tour...
