We work with trunks, branches and roots without felling trees🌳; we reuse wood to create furniture, sculptures and crafts in a sustainable way. We cultivate plantain, cassava, coffee, cacao, pineapple, sugarcane, chonta, guayusa, ayahuasca and tobacco, and transform some products. The experience promotes closer contact with the local community through coexistence, community activities, and cultural exchange. The lodging is in a roofed tent⛺.
