  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We speak Spanish most of the time, but visitors speak mostly English. We have frequent visits from conservation nonprofit organizations and students from local universities doing research and community outreach. We have an ongoing monitoring program to record biodiversity in our area. We offer eco-arts practices and other training in environmental education. We grow an organic garden and offer experience in caring holistically for the garden, the different composts, and our animals. We have different eco-technologies and are constantly experimenting with new ways to be more efficient and sustainable. We welcome creative and innovative people willing to share and learn sustainable living practices!
