HOW DID YOU LEARN ABOUT SMALL PLACES\/FINCA TRES ROBLES AND WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO JOIN?<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n I learned about Finca Tres Robles through Instagram. Someone I follow shared a Finca post that was requesting resumes for a delivery driver position. I checked out Finca\u2019s Instagram and website, and I was impressed with their values and community-building efforts. I share the same values as Small Places and was also interested in a position where I could interact with people on a deeper level than I was doing with my job at the time.
