The Experience

Hola, soy Felipe. Estamos comenzando un proyecto familiar de permacultura en una pequeña finca en Gachetá, Cundinamarca. Estamos ubicados a solo 3 horas al oriente de Bogotá en un área rural muy bonita y tranquila. En la finca vivimos mi mamá y yo. Tenemos varias tareas para desarrollar en nuestro terreno, pero necesitamos ayuda con manos, ideas y buena energía. Ven y disfruta una experiencia de la vida en el campo en las montañas del Guavio.

Was excellent, I was sad to leave felt therapeutic, it really did feel so homely. Extremely comfortable and food was superb. Lovely dogs, Maria, Felipes mother is so kind and caring always felt welcome.. As of the permaculture, I learnt so much from Felipe who shows a great passion for it- cultivating his finca sustainable, efficiently and organically and is always positive, learnt how to make bokashi- organic fertiliser, compost, making terraces for growing veg. Enjoyed the fun times- fire grilling food, chatting away listening to his good taste of worldwide music. highly recommend 🙌🏾

La experiencia fue hermosa. Estuve unos pocos días, hicimos principalmente siembras, podas y algunas tareas en el jardín. El lugar tiene unas vistas increíbles, la casa es muy cómoda y tanto Felipe como su mamá son personas muy lindas que te hacen sentir en casa. Gracias por todo!!
