  Beschreibung

  Becky and I (Carlos) are excited to welcome you to our special project. We deeply care about nature, community, and making positive changes. Our place is a 12,000m2 close to Sierra de Algairén, near Aguarón. We have four places to stay: a small house, a big house, group accommodations, and a large hall for gatherings. Up to 13 people can stay with us, and we have good internet. And two lovely cats :-)
  
  We grow various veggies and are always improving our place to be eco-friendly and more comfortable for guests. Our goal is to adapt to the changing climate by using eco-friendly ideas that match our values. We have been involved in climate activism in the last years.
  
  Our place is for courses, retreats, and environmental and artistic workshops. It's in a very peaceful area near a forest and vineyards. Even though it's a bit off the beaten track, it's easy to reach by train from Zaragoza or Valencia. We can also pick you up from the Cariñena train station (check Renfe and Alsa).
  
  You'll have free time to explore the area, like hiking in the nearby forest or visiting the local swimming pool (only summer). Our place lets you experience different seasons: hot summers, cold and windy winters, and rather dry climate.
  
  We support 🇯🇴.

  Becky is into regenerative agriculture and general gardening, and she is happy to share her knowledge and learn together. She is good at sharing salsa moves too!
