    Descripción

    After re-foresting and conserving old-growth forest on a 70 hectare (173 acres) property, we are now making it accessible to blind people and people in a wheelchair through an all-accessible trail
    In summer we rent a small cabin in the woods
    Slowly we are transforming degraded farmland in a permaculture farm and food forest.

    This Spring, Summer and Autumn we need volunteers to help us preparing a field for future tree plantations, taking down old fences, cleaning out an old barn and helping us gathering firewood for winter.

    We are a family of four:
    -Grecia : born on the island of Chiloé, 4th generation artisan
    Teaches weaving on the traditional and Swedish loom
    -Tamara : Grecia’s daughter, loves basketball, music, traveling, foreign languages, swimming
    -Gabriel : our new member of the family... Born in October 2013
    -Jeroen : Belgian citizen since 2005 living on the Archipelago of Chiloé. Jeroen is a chef, farmer and tour guide

    The main projects on Alihuen are:
    - Wildlife protection
    - Eco tourism
    - Environmental education
    - Reforestation
    - Water conservation
    - Sustainable land management
    - Organic farming

    We are setting up a sustainable farming and living school and our first mission is to identify the local fauna, flora and fungi.
    We have an old barn that needs to be cleaned out so that we can start upgrading it for outdoor classes.
    This summer we'll be also preparing a field to replant with native forest.
    For that we have to take down old fences.
