Description
We live in a paradise! Located in the heart of the raining jungle of Mexico, this is a regenerative cattle farm run by a family that love so much producing milk-based food while preserving native seeds and Creole livestock.
We are your family. We are christians, but we are very opened minded to receive anyone willing to practice love and respect.
Since 2020 we started a transition stage to change our farm from conventional-chemical-based agriculture and livestock farming to a regenerative sustainable ranch. Now we are 100% free of pesticides and any industrial additive, producing organic milk, organic honey, cheese, yogourt, kefir, sourdough bred, chucrut, and more. We love fermented food, almost everything we eat we produce here in the farm. Also we make our own soap and detergent based on ash, vegetable fat and water.
From time to time we organize workshop where we share some of this knowledge and practices to our community and people from other places.
