Organic citrus farm · Carcaixent, València
An ochre farmhouse, 38,000 m² of citrus and native plants, and one long table to share. Come to pick your own fruit, stay a few nights, or lend a hand on the land.
01The project
Indulge in creativity, embrace community, and savor harmony with nature.
Organic growing, our own compost, water‑saving irrigation and permaculture‑inspired ideas. Carcaixent is the cradle of the orange: the first commercial grove was planted here in 1781.
Three meals a day, Mediterranean at heart, with vegetables from the garden whenever we can. We cook, eat and trade stories together.
Live music, creative workshops and percussion as the light goes. A place for making things with your hands, not only for looking.
02A day at Campo Tucán
We work in the morning to dodge the heat, eat late and unhurried, and leave the afternoon to whoever it belongs to.
Coffee, bread, fruit off the trees. The vine‑covered courtyard is shady from the first hour.
Planting and watering, pruning citrus, mulching, composting, looking after paths and irrigation channels. A few steady hours.
The centre of the day. Seasonal cooking, often vegetarian; tell us in advance and we’ll adapt to your diet.
Read, nap, cycle between the orange trees, walk to the river or drive to the beach. Nobody asks.
From the terrace, with something to drink. Some nights there’s music; others, only crickets.
03From tree to hand
On weekends in season we open the gates. A walk through the orchard, the story of how we grow everything organically, a drink and a bite, and you take home whatever you pick.
Places are limited, so booking is essential. Bring closed shoes; we provide crates and clippers.
04Stay a while
As a guest, at your own pace. Or as a volunteer, with your hands in the soil. The table is the same.
Eco guesthouse
Simple, cosy rooms, good beds and views over the orange fields. Sustainable rural tourism half an hour from València and a short drive from the coast.
Volunteering · WWOOF
We host two volunteers at a time, from one week to over a month. A few hours’ work each morning in exchange for a room, three meals and everything we know.
05Your hosts
We’re a couple and this is home, in the countryside of Carcaixent. In November 2024 we planted the first rows of the garden, and Campo Tucán has been growing steadily since: an eco‑farm built around sustainability, community and creativity.
Antonio plays percussion. Harm, a designer, experiments with local and seasonal recipes. Together we host workshops, live music and long lunches.
06From the land to the table
Peel gets candied, pulp goes into cakes and what’s left returns to the compost. We’ve been making things from our own fruit for years.
