Catharina Zimmermann's Farms

Catharina Zimmermann's Page

What is your previous experience with Organic Agriculture and Sustainable Development?: I have not worked on an organic farm so far. But I try to eat as natural as possible and not to use more than I need of everything. Luckily, there is a lot of organic agriculture in my surroundings. Now, after having been a consumer for so many years, it's time for me to learn how the things I eat and use every day are produced. And how I can contribute to this.

What are your reasons for joining WWOOF Mexico?: Learning about sustainable living and agriculture, Getting to know Mexico better

What do you want the farms and fellow WWOOFers to know about you?: I am tired of consuming unconsciously and working for people and enterprises whose aims are not mine. It is far more important to me now to put into action what I feel in a more personal way. And that is, that in the long term, we have to leave behind the industrial food "production" that alienates us from what we eat and use every day, and from ourselves. The future, as the past, belongs to a more natural and complete way of growing and eating our food. But it's not enough to just think about that. I really want to contribute to this developement "back to the roots", so that our children's generation can still live on this earth.
