I came to help in the project La Colmena while I was living in San Cristobal La Colmena is a garden with family vibes and very cozy. It is located in a beautiful and peaceful forest area. The family is very welcoming and ready to answer all the questions about the tasks that need to be done in the garden.

El Encuentro es un lugar increíble. Perfecto si vas en busca de conectar y trabajar con la naturaleza. Todas las personas del equipo 'Pies A La Tierra' fueron siempre muy amigables y hubo un ambiente de trabajo muy sano. La pasé muy bien y al mismo tiempo aprendí mucho sobre agricultura y agroecología. Desde el primer contacto Kat fue muy clara y muy flexible en cuanto a los horarios y los días de descanso para salir al pueblo por lo que pude conocer también ese otro lado de San Cristóbal. En general mi experiencia fue muy buena, divertida y enriquecedora :)
