Permaculture & Agroecology Internship in Ecuador

I had a wonderful time at the Biodynamic workshop in Finca Sagrada. The land there is quite beautiful and mesmerizing. It was recently declared a sacred space by the Kogi natives in Colombia. They instructed the residents of Finca Sagrada to build a spirit hut out of natural material to do ceremony in. They were instructed to keep a fire going day and night inside the spirit hut. They were to use wood that was harvested only from fallen trees in the surrounding land.

The workshop itself was filled with information about anthroposophy and extensively went into many facets of Rudolph Steiner's work. There was a beautiful synergy of lectures and
activities that help deepen our understanding of the biodynamic philosophy. Finca Sagrada also contains a library that is stocked full of esoteric books of many different schools of thought. I found myself diving into these books as much as time allowed during the workshop.

The food was delicious and the accommodation was comfortable. There is a lovely rive that is only a couple minute walk from the community center that one can swim in between lectures and activities. The community experience was fantastic, there were individuals from many walks of life and from all parts of the world that came to this particular workshop. I feel like we all learned and have grown a lot during the time we spent together on the farm.

Una experiencia nueva para mi, donde me conecté con la Pacha Mama, el cosmos y el universo, donde aprendí los rituales de nuestros ancestros que tenían dicha coneccíon, pero hemos ignorado dichas herencias dejadas por varias culturas ancestrales, el entender que vivimos en un mundo tambíen desconocido por nosotros, un Avatar! Un taller muy enriquecedor y recomendado para aquellos que quieren un mundo mejor, en paz, armonía y sincronizado, con alimentos sanos para nuestros prójimos.

Recomendado para todo tipo de personas!

A new experience for me, where I connected with Pacha Mama, the cosmos, and the universe, where I learned the rituals of our ancestors who had this connection, but we have ignored these inheritances left by various ancestral cultures, understanding that we live in a world also unknown to us, an Avatar! A very enriching and recommended workshop for those who want a better world, in peace, harmony, and synchronization, with healthy foods for our neighbors.

Highly recommended for everyone!

Excelente Temario, motivación completa hacia la Agricultura Biodinámica y su importancia para mejorar nuestro Ser, Nuestra Humanidad.

La comida exquisita, natural y muy artesanal y nativa. Las actividades programadas muy apropiadas ..iniciando con los canticos al sol de las mañanas .. la agni-otra, luego la parte del movimiento.

Los auxiliares de la Huerta ... Que bello personal! La compañía y alegría de Susan fueron parte de nuestro ángel durante todo el encuentro. El alto conocimiento y convicción de Walter M. fue motor y seguridad para iniciar en el actuar de esta materia en nuestras vidas.

Muchas gracias Finca Sagrada!

Excellent Agenda, complete motivation towards Biodynamic Agriculture and its importance to improve our Being, Our Humanity.

The food is exquisite, natural, and very artisanal and native. The activities were very appropriate...starting with the chanting in the sunrise...the agni-otra, and then the movement part.

The garden helpers... what a beautiful staff! Susan's company and joy were part of our angel throughout the meeting. The high knowledge and conviction of Walter M. was the driving force and confidence to begin acting on this matter in our lives.

Thank you very much Finca Sagrada!
