  Description

  Hello, I am sadhu, an agroecological peasant producer from Subachoque, Cundinamarca, a beautiful agricultural region, with green landscapes and beautiful ecosystems such as the paramo and cloud forests. On my farm we are dedicated to the organic and sustainable production of fruits and vegetables. We make artisanal cheeses and yogurts, we produce Orellana mushrooms and cherry tomatoes. My parents and my brother live in my home, my mother cooks with a lot of love, making delicious dishes and my father will tell you crazy stories about his life. I am part of a peasant association of agroecological producers, we can visit their orchards and get to know them.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We can do work mingas, these consist of meeting with producers in the area and doing collaborative work to help someone specific. We can share our knowledge about agroecology and organic crops. I hope to learn new knowledge, techniques, ideas that can expand my worldview of the world. Learn new words from other languages. We can teach you typical Colombian gastronomic recipes.
