Description
This foundation is a permaculture project, focus on beach clean up operations in remote coastal communities of Colombia. We design and build recycling systems based on the precious plastic machines, and also build permaculture gardens, and educate communities about waste management. We finished for this year working on the formulation of the first permaculture school project in the Caribbean Coast, and in September and to celebrate our 10th year anniversary, were are working on the build of a botanical garden In the mountains near the city of cali.
We will be working in this garden for the next 6 months non stop, growing food, taking care of the fruit trees, making different types of compost, growing flowers and herbs and sharing our home with like minded permaculture people.
We have little cottage guest house where max 2 people can stay. We are pet friendly and kid friendly.
If you like growing food, building garden structures, and all sorts of permaculture related ideals, please feel free to write us and join our little community. Its 2 homes in one property , but you will have your own space. If you are good at social media and making videos is a super plus. we do need a lot of help documenting and posting our process for grant applications. This year Cali is hosting the COP16, and we do need a lot of help on video presentations for our 10th year celebration during the COP16. if living in the mountain sounds like a plan , feel free to contact us! Breakfast and veggie lunch are offered for your stay! But we love baking and making delicious meals when we have the company to do it for!
Love from DAPA MOUNTAINS.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
This experience would be perfect to some one looking to learn spanish, or Salsa in the city of Cali, but that loves to work in the Garden and live in the mountains.
Cali is a city full of cultural activities, and living in the mountains can make it even better.
Or if you decide to help in tierra bomba, it’s a great place to have an island life and still be close to the city! It’s only 10 minutes by boat from the city !Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
