It's a rencho in the nature where you can give your contribute to the sustainable construction of some parts of the property. The food it's not provided and they took you to supermarket with 200 pesos every week. Beto was always welcoming and kind. Jose was always available for explanations and needs, even if he overstepped in confidence

He aprendido sobre bionsnruction que fue muy interesante. Me ha gustado mucho hacer las paredes del barro. Además he ayudado en el jardín sacando plantas y buscando tierra. Jose y Monica son muy simpáticos y me explicaron todo muy bien. También he aprendido un poquito sobre acuaponía. Recomiendo mucho ir al proyeto.

El proyeto es un espacio que recomiendo mucho a quienes tienen el deseo de empezar a relacionarse con las alternativas sustentables para vivir, sobre todo con la bio-construcción. A algunos voluntarios les tocará participar en algún taller de bio-construcción, impartido por José. Y para eso habrá que estar abierto a participar ese fin de semana en concreto, pues son los días que se descansan. La ventaja es que el taller no tendrá costo y valen mucho la pena para quienes sí buscan ampliar sus conocimientos. Además, el descanso se repone otro día. Tanto el espacio como la gente son excelentes.
