  Description

  Hi, this is a simple Tropical Farming-Living Project about 12km from Mompiche (the beach), where I engage in commercial and self-sustainable activities with the goal to live and work in harmony with Life and Nature. Most activities here are agriculture-based but I am also always improving or repairing infrastructures so building and construction activities are also routine. There is always a lot to get done and its always rewarding and fun to work and experience nature from within.
  
  The Farm is located 80km from Esmeralas,-the city, on the main road ( Ruta Espondylus ) about 12km before Mompiche. Transport there is no problem and takes less than 20min from Mompiche by Bus.
  
  The Farms 20ha embrace;
  - Fruit Plantations such as Plantain, Cacao, Banana, Papaya, Passion fruit, coco-nuts and many different
  fruit trees.
  - Pasture fields.
  - Forest.
  - Animals Domestic and wild
  - Bee hives
  - Nice River (Rio Muisne)
  - Beautiful landscape with a lively environment full of life and all colored birds...
  
  Life here is a Down-to-Earth experience where you can enjoy the
  simplicity of life.
