Description
My mother lives on a farm on the shores of the Rocha lagoon. At the moment we dedicate our time mainly to the garden, maintenance of the houses (one for guests and yours) and restoration of natural field after a deforestation of pines
Working in the place is mainly her, Maria Clara. I help her in digital aspects and I go around every so often.
In addition, a wide circle of people, family and friends, visit us and support us in different aspects.

Además, un círculo amplio de personas, familiares y amigos, nos visitan y apoyan en diferentes aspectos.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The farm is in a protected area with an abundant diversity of flora and fauna. It is our desire to create a wildlife refuge where we can create a respectful bond with the environment. We have a good exchange with the inhabitants of the lagoon, the fishing community, park rangers, university researchers, and environmental protection societies.
