    Description

    This is a way of life. We recently acquired a piece of land in the rural area of São Lourenço, state of Minas Gerais, and we are establishing a "laboratory" for regenerative/sustainable practices. Our goal is to be completely self sustainable regarding food production, water, energy, housing... We are interested in cultural exchange and sharing experiences.

    We are able to provide a welcoming and friendly environment for our friends and visitors as well as we can offer a nice place to stay and delicious/nutritious food.

    Some typical examples of fun we have at home is playing, singing and cooking together. Also we are often working on the garden and other permaculture projects in the property.

    One of our main projects is the promotion and free distribution of Moringa Oleifera seeds. Moringa Oleifera is known today as the most nutritious plant on Earth, and its seeds have the extraordinary capacity of purifying contaminated water and making it proper to drink.

    For this new phase that´s being incubated, the dream continues to be the creation of a self sustainable project, with focus in self-sovereignty for individuals and communities, and study and practice/experimentation with tools like Dragon Dreaming, Nonviolent Communication (Marshall Rosenberg), Permaculture, Social deconditioning, Tantra, Naturism (nudism), Dynamic Meditation, etc.

    We are thankful for help with general maintenance, cooking, teaching and sharing experiences.,. We are open to what makes your heart beat in love and of course the list can be endless _/\_

    One of our main activities is a Singing Circle and dinner with friends we do every week
