The "Women's Permaculture: Cultivating the Inner Garden" workshop is designed to empower women by intertwining the principles of permaculture with self-growth. Participants, ranging from seasoned practitioners to newcomers, will explore sustainable farming techniques while nurturing their emotional well-being. Through hands-on experiences in composting, soil regeneration, and planting, blended with personal reflection and community-building activities, attendees will discover how tending to the Earth parallels caring for oneself.

I am captivated by the intricate relationships between soil, water, microorganisms, and plants, as well as their impact on our health. By mimicking nature’s wisdom, we can foster a harmonious bond with ourselves, others, and the Earth. Nurturing our inner gardens and souls.

My commitment extends beyond personal growth. I am dedicated to guiding my two children and serving my family and community. I strive to practice what I teach, approaching life with humility and positivity.

My educational background includes a degree in Agronomic Engineering from EARTH University, Costa Rica, and an MSc. in Sustainable Community Development. My passion lies in regenerative agro-ecology, eco-social strategies, and education.

Throughout my journey, I have gained extensive experience in developing food security and community development projects in Colombia and Costa Rica.
