Früchte der Finca Tierra 2018

Although there have been several tries since the founding of the finca in 2000, no permanent community has emerged. But during these years Maine followed her idea of a dynamic community and developed a huge net of friendships and acquaintanceships that connects her with people in the neighbourhood and all over the world. For a few times a year some events like seminars and retreats take place or guest spend their holidays there. Otherwise Maine invites old and new friends who keep company for some days, weeks or even months and support her with the maintenance of the finca. Since I spend there every winter since 2014, what means beginning of December till end of April, I am the only constant besides Maine at this place.
Here you can see some pictures.

The image above shows a selection of the fruits available on the finca: There are bananas, loquats, cherimoyas, apples, avocados, guavas, canistels, oranges, papayas, tomatoes.
