I stayed there it's pretty good
near Turrialba in the forest reserve and hills. You can find more info on their website.
http://www.geocities.com/verehcostarica
Unlike most WWOOFing places in Costa Rica it's free if you work 4 hours a day. If you don't work you pay a few dollars to camp and eat.
There are some interesting walks nearby. And an Indigenous man who works there can also guide you on the Indigenous reserve a couple of hours away.
You need to ford the river to enter.
And don't forget to bring your treats as the nearest shop is a 2.5 hour walk away.

How do I get there?
Finca Ipe is located in the coastal mountains on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. We're off the main highway linking the bustling market town of San Isidro del General to the famous surfing spot of Playa Dominical, just below the mountain village of Platanillo. You can reach the farm by bus, taxi or you could even try hitching. If you're coming from San José, take a bus from the new Musoc terminal or Coca Cola bus station to San Isidro del General (Perez Zelédon) - it takes about 3 ˝ hours (around $4-$5). From there, make your way to Transportes Blancas, the bus station for Dominical and Uvita. Here you can take a 40-50 minute bus ride (direction: Dominical). Just ask the bus driver to stop at Finca Ipe.

LOCATION : 18km from major town. 25km intl airport.Small village of 30 people
Located in the Guanacaste province od Costa Rica,
is an organic farm in the making.
Our intention is to turn this 155 acre area of land
into a successful organic farm through the
implementation of permaculture, agroforestry, organic
and biodynamic agricultural techniques and principles.
It will serve as a model farm amongst many cattle
ranches ( as this once was) in order to demonstrate
how other growing techniques can flourish and be
potentially profitable. We require volunteers to come
and work with us on this challenge in the beautiful
temperate valley that we live in. No experience is
necessary although knowledge of permaculture,
agroforestry and general growing principles is a huge
advantage. It is helpful but not necessary that you
speak some Spanish. Although all skills will come in
useful! Lodging is either in the house or tent and
will be improving with your help. A small fee will be
charged to cover living expenses and contribute
towards the running of the farm.

Volunteers are expected to work five hours a day, five days a week, plus two hours one other day of the week. If you would like two consecutive days off, you may work two extra hours during one of your five workdays. We like volunteers to keep their own hours. The schedule can be flexible, and leaves ample time for you to enjoy this wonderful area. We usually begin our workday around 6 a.m., though you are welcome to start when you want. The early morning hours are generally the most pleasant as it often times gets warm or rains in the afternoon.
$10 a day
Mastatal.Ranch
Our volunteer rate is $10 a day. This includes meals and lodging.
Bus from the Central Pacific Coast
First you must get to Quepos. From Quepos, take one of two buses each day that go to San José via Puriscal (ask about buses to Puriscal). These buses leave from the Quepos bus station at 4:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. (check with the bus station for possible changes in times). There are other buses that go from Quepos to San José, but not via Puriscal, so you will have to be sure that you are on a bus that goes via Puriscal. From Quepos, the bus heads west and passes through the town of Parrita, and then turns north headed for Puriscal. After about 1 hour 15 minutes from this turnoff, you will come to the small town of Guarumal. There is a restaurant there named La Union. The afternoon bus stops there for a 10-minute break, though the morning bus generally passes by without stopping. If you are on the morning bus, you will have to ask the bus driver to stop. If you make and confirm arrangements with us ahead of time, we can pick you up there and bring you to the Ranch (about 7 kms.) The morning bus out of Quepos arrives to La Union around 6:30 a.m., and the afternoon bus around 3:15 p.m.
Alternately, you can get off at El Cruce, which is about 1 kilometer past the La Union Restaurant. This is simply a bus stop at the junction of a road that leads to Mastatal. There is a sign at this junction announcing the Parque Nacional La Cangreja. The bus continues straight towards Puriscal. You have to get off at El Cruce and walk, hitchhike, (or we could pick you up with advance notice) from El Cruce to Mastatal, about 6 kms. Traffic is sparse. Our house is on the left as you enter into the town of Mastatal.

dedicated to sustainable agriculture using innovative

locales. Volunteers spend their days and nights
picking (and eating!) the over 120 varieties of
tropical fruit, observing huge marine turtles nest on
the beach, living in houses built completely of fallen
trees, and using solar powered eco-friendly energy.
American Stephen Brooks started the project in 1995
with a group of North American high school students,
and the farm, since grown to an active environmental
educational center and volunteer facility. Volunteers
just need to show up and ask for Steve. US$20 per day
to stay at the farm, US$10 per day for volunteer-work

is also involved in stopping clear cutting for
monocrop plantation and runs a program to start a
nursery, enrich soil, plant native trees, repair
trails, and create a permaculture water management
system. Interested volunteers can bring tents or sleep
on the wooden floor of the old farmhouse with access
to a compost toilet, clear spring water, and an open
fireplace. Those who want to stay at the primary farm
can camp out for free in exchange for work or pay for

During each of these units, the number of volunteers will be limited to the first six applicants who we feel will get the most from being here. Preference will be given to those whose major motivation is conservation of the tropical forests, doing something positive for the planet, and who are physically fit. If you sincerely feel that you qualify and can make a positive contribution to Genesis II, please indicate in your e-Mail to us your preferred unit by number, and indicate your second and third choices (if possible) also by number.
n the four weeks commitment, volunteers actually work for 2 ten-day periods (for 6 hours each day), with 4 days off after each period. These days off can be spent free on the property, or used for traveling to other parts of beautiful Costa Rica. In this regard, the bus system is complete, reliable and cheap. Visits to nearby Panama and Nicaragua are also possible, if desired. A sleeping bag liner with pillow pocket would be useful for hot climates of hostelling, and a winter (good to freezing) sleeping bag for our elevation.
We are not formally funded or financially supported in any way, and need to make a small profit, so that we can continue our program of improvements. In this regard, we ask a minimum donation of $150.00 U.S. HA HA

Each volunteer must stay for a 14-day trial period where she/he will work 4 hours per day. A $20/day charge will include meals and accommodations. Bringing a tent is required for the trial period. If a long term agreement is reached, it is possible for you to move to a rancho, depending on availability. We feel it is in the best interest of us and the volunteer not to make any commitment regarding long-term arrangements until we have spent time together and you can decide if jungle livin' is for you.

Selva Bananito Lodge on the Atlantic slope of Costa Rica often seeks volunteers and interns to help with all aspects of operating the lodge, from leading horseback and rain forest excursions to cleaning cabins, cooking, and doing clerical office work. We give preference to individuals who have previously lived in Latin America. You will find a sample contract at the bottom of this page. Volunteers pay for the round-trip ticket between their country of origin and Costa Rica, and a participation fee of $300 a month.
