  • Description

    Description

    We are an off grid 15 acre ranch in the desert of El Pescadero, Baja Sur. 15 minutes from Cerritos beach, 25 min from Todos Santos. We have been developing our off grid Permaculture Farm and an Eco village since 2019. We are working on gardens, increasing wildlife habitat, trail networks, and eco friendly infrastructure. Husband and wife team, Dane and Sabrina have been living off grid since 2016 and are chasing a goal for self sufficient living in harmony with nature. The area is abundant in exploration either the Sierra de la Laguna Mountains or the beaches of El Pescadero. We offer an enriching experience to reconnect with nature while living off the grid and developing a permaculture skillset.

Adventure to Todos Santos and stroll around the town checking out all the funky stores, colonial buildings and art galleries. Tour up into the beautiful little ranches and mexican pueblos beyond us and go for a dip in the year round mountain streams of the Sierra de la Laguna mountains.
