Hi Guys
I'm Mauro, i'm 35 years old and i'm and architect.
We are a family Farm. In the coffee area of Colombia, about and hour by car from the city of Pereira and about 15 min from Balboa ( a little old coffee town )
at the moment we are farming coffee, plantain, corn, beans, yuca, bamboo and various fruits and medicinal herbs
we do all the farm process in the more organic way we can, moving towards our goal of been an 100% organic farm as soon as possible, we are also building our own infrastructure using Eco- friendly building materials and methods
such as bamboo,recyclable paper, wood and earth.
We are a little family operation, there is my dad who lives in the farm has been growing things for ages, my uncle who is also an architect and is always figuring out how to build things and there is me the one who is learning and trying to help .
So if you come and pass some time working with us you will be in a family friendly environment at the middle of an amazing geographical and cultural area , landscape here is UNESCO world heritage list.
The farm is about an hour from Pereira international Airport . I'm based in Pereira but i go to work at the farm twice per week, so i will pick you up and take you to the farm and back to Pereira.
We like what we do, we have learn somethings in this process and we are happy to teach anyone but mostly we are really willing to learn from every one, we are farmers , builders and travelers that will be happy to work with you.

-prepare compost
-collect or plant , coffee or fruits, or anything if you get in the season
