Protecting native seeds and traditional Andean Agricultural techniques are the main basis of the farm project.

We are committed to using the land and resources to educate local children and youth in sustainable agricultural methods, local climate adaptation and mitigation strategies as well as healthy living and wellbeing awareness programs.

We do not use products which harm the environment or our communities. As a fully organic farm, we are not only protecting the environment, but also ensuring long-term health benefits, essential farming knowledge as well as sustainable business activities.

View Project

In a fast changing world, our commitment is to ensure the protection, cultivation and promotion of traditional Andean culture. Indigenous communities have a strong connection with their roots and their natural surroundings guaranteeing a harmonious relationship with life itself. Preserving traditional music, song, dance, weaving techniques, Andean Cosmovision and food customs are the essence of our cultural project.

Sharing the events throughout Andean Calendar allows us to raise awareness of the Quechua Nation, our values of respect, love and reciprocity as well as inspire communities locally, nationally and internationally to practice culture and tradition freely and proudly.
