    We are a couple, Rafa and Angeles, and 4 pets, three cats and a dog,
    The farm is located 2 kms from the village, next to the creek "the porotal". The premise is on a flat land in a closed area with a natural viewpoint of the valley. Since the farm was recently acquired, the project is starting so there are many activities to do, such as planning the layout of the garden, the poultry but also the expansion of the house, the construction of the clay oven, dry toilets and the realisation of adobes.

    Somos una pareja , Rafa y Ángeles, y 4 mascotas, tres gatos y una perrita,
    La chacra se encuentra a 2 kms del pueblo, al lado de la quebrada "el porotal". El predio cuenta con una zona llana y cerro con un mirador natural del valle. Dado que la chacra fue adquirida recientemente, el proyecto es de orden fundacional por lo que hay múltiples actividades para realizar, las cuales están vinculadas con todo lo referente a la planificación de los espacios dedicados a la huerta, a las aves de corral y demás animales, tanto como a la ampliación de la vivienda, la construcción del horno de barro, los baños secos y la realización de adobes
