    The experience of learning in theory and above all in practice how to use the materials that we dispose of the land to build beautiful places in harmony with the environment, learn about caring and be part of the formation of the edible forest and share and learn from the different travelers, teachers and characters that share in the transition of this space.
    And of course... enjoy a unique place, a valley in the desert, with a night sky full of stars, and much production of pisco and wine, in a very quiet place with lots of nature and peace around.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    It is a desert valley, but there is a lot of water thanks to irrigation canals, the weather is warm during the day and not very cold at night. 10 minutes from the town of La Joya. The river is 5 minutes away and the Pacific Ocean is 1 hour away for beach lovers. (flexible with the times and movements of each traveler) :) place to learn, do, heal, share and enjoy with the pachamama.
