What is your previous experience with Organic Agriculture and Sustainable Development?: Having grown up in a farming county in Massachusetts, I've had sporadic experience in small-scale organic farming since I was a kid. I have a bachelor's degree in Biology from Occidental College and I am planning on attending graduate school for horticultural science. That being said, I have experience with planting, cultivation and harvesting crops on a small scale, and I have considerable academic background on plant science.

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 run marathons and I'm vegan :) I am conversational in Spanish, and I want to become fluent!

My name is Gail Blackburn. I have a farm in Barras de Piaxtla, Sinaloa, México. You can see the farm on this website or on my webpage at: www.larosaorganicos.com. we sell organic produce at the Mazatlan Organic Market on Saturday mornings starting on November 16th. I have lived here for 20 years and have had organic farms in northern California and Washington before coming here. We are now at the height of our planting season and could really use some help. If you are interested in coming here for at least a month, that is our minimum, please email me and let me know what your plans are. My email is larosaorganicos@gmail.com.

Thanks, Gail
