Summer Farm Work in Italy

Berry Farm offers a summer working holiday in the Italian Alps for people who enjoy being outdoors and are interested in experiencing rural life in Italy.

The work takes place mainly during the summer season and involves helping with our agricultural activities.

You will spend part of your day working on the farm and have the rest of your time to discover the surrounding mountains, villages, valleys and natural landscapes.

This is not a traditional holiday and it is not simply a summer job.

It is an opportunity to work, live and travel in Italy while experiencing the local culture and mountain lifestyle.

Work in the Italian Alps

Our farm is located in Cogolo di Pejo, in Val di Sole, in the province of Trentino.

The area is surrounded by the Italian Alps and offers an exceptional environment for people who love nature, hiking, mountains and outdoor activities.

When you are not working, you can explore the many things that the area has to offer.

Depending on the season and weather conditions, you can enjoy:

hiking and mountain walks
alpine trails
mountain lakes
waterfalls
forests and valleys
beautiful mountain villages
cycling and outdoor sports
nature and wildlife
the spectacular landscapes of Trentino

If you are looking for a summer job in the Alps, this is an opportunity to combine work and travel in a truly natural environment.

A Working Holiday in Trentino

A working holiday at Berry Farm is about much more than working.

It is an opportunity to slow down, spend time outdoors, meet new people and discover a different side of Italy.

experience life in the Italian countryside
work on a real farm

explore Val di Sole and Trentino
improve your English and Italian

enjoy an active lifestyle
combine work and travel in Italy

What Is the Work Like?

The work is agricultural and takes place outdoors.

You will help with the activities required on the farm during the summer season. The work can be physical, so you should be prepared to spend several hours outdoors and to work in different weather conditions.

The working schedule is organised so that you have free time to enjoy the area and discover the mountains.

We are looking for people who are:

reliable
motivated
responsible
comfortable working outdoors
willing to learn
able to work as part of a team
interested in experiencing rural life in Italy

You do not need to be an expert farmer. What matters most is your attitude, willingness to work and interest in the experience.

We serve 3 meals a day for seven days even in your free weekend .

Meals are prepared by Jocelyn with a mix of Italian-Filipina cousine!

The cost of the meals will be deducted by the payment for the work

The accommodation is part of the working holiday experience and allows you to stay close to the place where you work while enjoying the freedom to explore the mountains in your free time.

Paid Seasonal Work in Italy

The working arrangement includes a registered agricultural employment contract, with payment for the hours worked according to the agreed conditions.

This makes the experience different from an informal volunteer exchange.

You are coming to work with us on a real farm while also having the opportunity to enjoy a unique summer in the Italian Alps.

Before your arrival, we will explain the working conditions, schedule and other practical details so that you know what to expect.

Why Choose a Summer Job in the Italian Alps?

A seasonal job in Italy can be much more than a way to earn money during the summer.

It can also be a chance to discover a new country, improve your language skills, meet people from different backgrounds and experience a completely different lifestyle.

At Berry Farm, you can combine:

Work + Nature + Travel + Italian Culture + Mountain Life

If you love the outdoors and want something different from a typical summer holiday, a working holiday in Trentino could be the right experience for you.

Discover Val di Sole

Val di Sole is one of the most beautiful mountain valleys in Trentino.

Located in the heart of the Italian Alps, the valley is known for its mountains, forests, rivers, lakes and extensive network of hiking trails.
