Description
Me (Anika) and Isa (3yr old) have been living in San Sebastián Rio Hondo for some years now. Created projects here on and off throughout the years and now I’m looking for help to continue to grow and share with others our lifestyle!
We live in town with two dogs and five goats. We have a ranch 20 minutes into the forest where we take the goats to pasture.
Once a month we organise an artesanal market in the centre of town and once a week a small farmers market.

Help
We need help right now with taking care of the goats, and because the nature of the activities right now we are only accepting groups of two or three. Not individual people
We have five goats and make cheese and cajeta! So there’s lots of time spent taking the goats to pasture, cleaning their home, milking the goats…
And if you’re interested you can learn how to make goats cheese
