Ellen Heijenga's Contacts

Ellen Heijenga's Farms

What is your previous experience with Organic Agriculture and Sustainable Development?: knowledge of organic food

What are your reasons for joining WWOOF Mexico?: Learning about sustainable living and agriculture

What do you want the farms and fellow WWOOFers to know about you?: Estimados miembros de la cooperativa~~ Eating organic food has kept me healthy over the past 20 years. So far, i've only grown my own herbs for food seasoning. I would like to get my fingers in the earth and dig a little deeper: it's time for me to grow the food as well. To me it doesn't end with caring for the crop. As a musician, meditationteacher and soundhealer my care goes out to all those around me. On my travels i've mainly worked in child care: Nursery schools in Bolivia and Zambia, disabled children in India and an orphanage in Nepal.Depending on availability of tickets i could start work early december. Esperando oir pronto sus gratas noticias, les saluda*Ellen*

We would really like if you could come stay for a night and see if you vibe well with us and the project. We could really use a hand. Paz Amor Luz. Issac Garcia

We have a few questions - would you contact us directly at our email - hwallycarlson@hotmail.com Thank you - Amaranta

At 9:54am on December 14, 2009, Nikita Jane Brockmuller said…: Hey Ellen,

No, I haven't had any response at all, and I both emailed them directly, and on their wwoofing profile. Actually, I've sent about 7 or so requests for farms in mexico with no response at all, I mean, not even a "thanks for your email, but we're not accepting volunteers" very dissappointing.

Hope you have more luck,
happy travels,
Nikita

Please tell me what dates you look forward for working with us, so I can arrange a bit easier.
With the food Ellen, there might be a inconvinience, because we still do not produce organic food, well we do coffee, and certain fruits, but not for a full meal. Would some vegetables from the local market do? Please let me know
Saludos cordiales
