Description:  We're on 4 hectares farm 10 minutes’ drive from Puerto Escondido Oaxaca

We're in the basic stage of building up the farm

We've put in gardens, a food forest, ponds and Swales for water harvesting

There are two super adobe domes and a shed

A shared kitchen area and showers and composting toilets. There is no electricity as of yet but is in the pipe line for the very near future. Accommodation is camping at the moment so came with tents or sleeping devices. We are in the process of building compost with a system that involves recycled organic materials from the local market and chickens. We're doing bio construction with earth bags, adobe and some concrete and wood. Building ponds and watering the plants

Please note that Oaxaca is very hot especially here on the coast and most of the work is quite physical so be prepared to sweat and get a little dirty.

 Food offered at the farm is generally basic vegetarian and healthy.
