permaculture project in Mexico city… urban agriculture
We are a urban community inspired by Permaculture. Through experimentation we seek sustainability within urban life. Nowadays the tendency to consume industrial agriculture contributes in a series of social, economic, environmental and nourishment aspects, amongst others. Over the years, life in Mexico City has become complicated as a result of constant stress. Cualti through urban agriculture is looking forward to create a social network of people that have a green and productive space in their own home, where they could enjoy peace; tranquility and cultivate their own organic food, with the possibility to collaborate in a local market, amongst other advantages…..
This ia a permaculture institute we are building nearby Palenque town, on the state of Chiapas. We offer permanent education in all topics arround sustainability on the countryside.
