    Description

    In the midst of the extensive plains of eastern Colombia is the little farm, a small paradise where fruits, flowers and birds abound. A territory that we protect and guard a place where you reconnect with the essential our pacha mama.
    A space of constant transformative learning where we use Permaculture as the main tool and way of life, relying on its ethics and principles, if you want to share and learn a path towards a better sustainability we wait for you.

    En medio de las extensas llanuras del oriente colombiano se encuentra, un pequeño paraíso donde abundan frutas, Flores y aves. Un territorio que protegemos y guardianamos, un lugar en donde te reconectaras con lo esencial nuestra pacha mama.
    Un espacio de constante aprendizaje transformativo donde utilizamos la Permacultura como principal herramienta y forma de vida, apoyándonos en su ética y principios.
    Este territorio es un refugio silvestre, en donde vivimos en armonía con la naturaleza, por eso buscamos voluntarios o bioaprendices consientes y sensibles dispuestos a compartir esta experiencia de vida y así aprender un camino hacia una mejor sustentabilidad y ser parte del cambio. Te esperamos.
