The majority of the volunteer work at the ranch will be done outside and will involve a wide range of tasks. The ranch owners place the utmost importance on volunteers feeling at ease performing their duties. But it's also critical that volunteers possess a strong work ethic and demonstrate adaptability and flexibility when given varying responsibilities.
Each volunteer is also expected to have a certain level of initiative, drive, and sense of accountability. The maintenance of the house and surrounding areas of the ranch, stable work, field work, and animal care and feeding are all examples of volunteer work.
Additionally, volunteers will be able to assist with organizing and supervising horseback riding excursions in addition to providing guest service. The volunteers will also be permitted to assist in training the horses if they have previous equestrian experience.
Working with tourists entails assisting with the organization and direction of horseback riding tours to Inca and Pre-Inca temples and archaeological sites. It is only for seasoned riders to assume this duty.
If working with horses isn't your thing, there are many other types of work you can do. In addition to the horses, the farm is home to a variety of animals, such as cats, dogs that were taken in from the streets, chickens, ducks, and cows. You can also help with field work, farm maintenance, and landscaping.
It is possible to learn how to make homemade yogurt, cheese, and horse hoof cuts in addition to milking cows.
Works start early in the morning before the heat. Breakfast is at about 7 a.m. Work starts after a hearty breakfast. Lunch is at about 12:30 p.m. and the afternoon shift goes from about 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. We would like to point out that working hours may vary.
