  • Description

    Description

    We are located in Celendín, in the Cajamarca Region
    Santos works here, the German volunteer Antonio who stays with us for a year, the friends who collaborate on the project, the family that hosts the Workawayer.

    The project and the organization:
    The project was rooted in Germany where Santos lived for 18 years and saw that a way of producing organic and healthy is possible. The organization was created in this way, the idea is to develop an organic culture in Celendín, sow, harvest, prepare baskets of organic vegetables, develop connections with families of farmers or schools etc)
    You can collaborate here on the outskirts of Celendín, in a house with farm (field). Here we want to develop a prototype of organic culture to replicate it in several other sites in the region.

    Here we speak mostly Spanish and German, English is not spoken then it would be better to handle some of those languages, but we will try to communicate the same ... Anyway, better please communicate with Google Translate so that we understand each other well :)

    Nos ubicamos en Celendín, en la Región de Cajamarca
    Aquí trabajan Santos, la voluntaria alemana Antonia que se queda con nosotros por un año, los amigos que colaboran en el proyecto, la familia que hospeda el/la Workawayer.

    El proyecto y la organización:
    El proyecto se raicé en Alemania donde Santos vivo por 18 años y vio que un modo de producir orgánico y saludable es posible. Se creo así la organización, la idea es de desarrollar en Celendín una cultura orgánica, sembrar, cosechar, preparar canastas de verduras orgánicas, desarrollar conexiones con familias de campesinos o escuelas etc)
    Se puede colaborar aqui en las afueras de Celendín, en una casa con chacra (campo). Aqui se quiere desarrollar un prototipo de cultura orgánica para replicarlo en varios otros sitios de la región.

    Aquí se habla sobre todo Español y Alemán, No se habla Inglés entonces sería mejor ya manejar unos de eses idiomas, pero intentaremos comunicarnos igual... De todas maneras, mejor por favor comunicar con Google Translate para que nos entendemos bien :)
