Description
this a new project, only have one year, it´s a eco tourism project in Altos del Bio Bio, Chile, in Pehuenche native town (5 hrs from Santiago, Chile. by car) . We are started and we need to take care, educate, control, cleaning and make known this new Park. We live in a mountain refuge where we are trying to be self-sufficient (vegetable garden), also we make compost and biofertilizer , we are 4 peoples in the refuge and in the farm, live 5 more families working in there. 2 of us we speak a regular english but we understand. This is a conservation project, where we try to take care of a place and also offer the attractiveness of the area. What I want to do with this project, is to educate the people who take care of it too, since this place was without care for many years and I have a great deal of affection for the hand of man. if you are hard working, reliable, happy and want to have a relax time around nature, this is your place. in this park, we don´t sell food to the customers
