Our Story

BORN FROM AN
ABANDONED FARM

When I found this abandoned farm in the mountains above Juayua in El Salvador it had been used as the local trash dump for many years. I had a vision that our community would turn this forgotten paradise into the collective expression of your love on Earth for generations to come.
