Description
Community based project - Using Ancient Mayan Techniques in Antigua, Guatemala
We have created a beautiful farm and community led initiative near the heart of Antigua. We have a beautiful vision for the space that is thoughtfully and slowly being created day by day. The farm has Mayan spirals where we grow vegetables, flowers, and herbs. We have a puppy & kitten rescue center, a mushroom cultivation shed, fruit forest, a soccerl field and green space for sports/yoga, a kitchen (eco cafe) where we are experimenting with creating a healthy menu of fresh salads, small dishes, power balls, and smoothies. We strive to create this project in the most community oriented and sustainable way as possible. Our goal is help the local community to integrate into this healthy/selfustainable lifestyle and help educate and train people in different areas & skill sets. Through classes, workshops, festivals, sports events, gathering, celebrations and hard work we are manifesting this vision every day.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre
