Welcome to the food forest
Twenty years ago we heard the call to land and food independence and moved to a mountain in La Tigra. This is what we have been building since.
When we arrived on Magic Mountain there was pasture, a few old fruit trees and a lot of rain. Twenty years later there is a food forest, a community, a kitchen that never quite closes and a family that has grown far beyond the four of us.
Why a food forest?
Because a forest does not need to be fed. Once the layers are in place — pioneers, fruit, timber, ground cover — the system produces its own mulch, its own fertility and its own shade. Our job becomes pruning and harvesting rather than spraying and buying.
What is next
More syntropic rows, more animals on rotation, horses (finally), and more of you: retreats, workshops, volunteers and neighbours. If you are reading this, you are already a little bit part of it.
