Visit the Agroecologic Farm
A tour full of colors, smells and flavors! Located in Mashpi Ecuador
We are part of initiatives that seek to generate a territory where forest conservation, human relations, water sources, biodiversity and sustainable productive activities that guarantee food, economic and energy sovereignty are harmonized
WE RESTORE WITH PERMACULTURE PRACTICES
Currently, 82% of the property is dedicated to water, flora and fauna conservation (the Mashpi Shungo Reserve); the remaining 18% is being restored with regenerative agroforestry systems (the Mashpi Chocolate Artesanal farm).
At the Farm, the use of local resources and knowledge allows us to generate a productive model free of agrochemicals and, therefore, zero contamination for producers and consumers, biodiversity, water and soil.
