Baños, Rio negro, Estancias (4km)
Directions:
Take the bus from Baños towards Puyo and get off in the town of Rio Negro (approx. 40 minutes bus ride, 0,75 cents) ask the local taxi drivers to take you the 4 km to Finca Vrindavan (2 dollars for a shared taxi).
PS: If you arrive in Rio Negro after dark, it may be difficult to find a taxi to take you to the farm. Rio Negro is a very small town with just a few taxis and the taxi drivers usually stop working around 9:00 PM. The taxis are pickup trucks and are usually parked in front of the plaza. You can ask for a taxi in any of the stores or restaurants. If you can't find a taxi, it is possible to walk to the farm. Walk to the end of town (towards Puyo) and turn right, crossing the bridge. It is about 4km from the bridge to the farm.

Everybody at Vrindavan is a volunteer! We have no hired help so we need assistance in all areas including daily tasks such as cleaning, cooking, and maintaining the land and facilities. In addition we are working on cultivating the land and hope to develop new projects soon to make our village more sustainable; such as a hydro-electric system for light and a biodigestor to make gas. We are also open to different skills and creative ideas you wish to share with us, as well as other things you may want to offer like language classes, art workshops, etc.
