Description
We have a 3 hectare plot of native woodland, organic farm/orchard and flower garden in the Mallin Ahogado area, 16 km North of the town of El Bolson (130 km South of Bariloche, Argentine Patagonia).
People come for the mountain climbing, hiking and horse riding,
river and lake fly fishing, winter skiing and the well known artisan market.
Other natural attractions near by include rivers with bathing pools and waterfalls. The neighborhood consists
of small farms and a varied international community.
There is a regular bus service to El Bolson.
I am in the process of converting the farm from the traditional to a more modern style of agriculture.
People who are interested in learning about cold climate permaculture (Holzer style), forest fire management/damage limitation, natural construction, recycling, animal care, meat curing and smoking, blacksmithing and self sufficiency.
Facilities:Electricity, wifi, running water, shower, washing machine, dry/composter toilet (if you dont know what one is google it now), fuel and cooking facilities and plenty of camping space/barn.
