Overview

A variety of over two hundred different plants, most of them native Mexican plants, makes for a unique and special experience to any and all plant-lovers.
As you enter the lush space, you’ll see an abundance of greenery and observe first-hand the subtle interactions within our fruit tree guilds, hügelkulturs, and garden beds.
The orchard has grown to sustain several species of birds, insects, mammals, and reptiles; discovering such relations can help us bridge the gap between ourselves and our food. The yumminess of a live, fresh patch of Swiss chard can’t be easily matched—it’s like you’re meant to take a bite.
Ideal for plant enthusiasts and adventure seekers, you'll gain insider knowledge on how we carry the summer flavors into the winter.
Come, meet our chickens, and get your hands a little dirty as you forage for delicious, nutrient-packed veggies, seasonal fruits, or even seeds and flowers.
Join us for an immersive experience you won’t forget.

We will meet at the pick-up point and drive to the orchard. The ride will last anywhere between 45 minutes and an hour, depending on traffic.
Upon arriving, we will explore the space itself, getting to know some of the trees, plants, and veggies that comprise it, and learn about the different techniques we have employed, adapted, or developed ourselves while building it. You will engage yet another sense with the sounds that can be heard in the orchard as various birds and insects pay visits to it throughout the day.
We'll go beyond observing and listening with a hands-on approach that will further reveal some of the many ways in which we can interact with its different elements through our senses, with something as simple as crushing a leaf to release its fragrance or outright trying it to discover a new flavor.
You will then shorten the distance between you and your food by foraging among what the garden will have to offer at that moment, only to put your creativity to the test as we help you imagine something simple yet scrumptious to eat with the freshest possible produce; something that will be undoubtedly memorable as the cherry on top of your experience with our orchard.
