- Day 1: Introduction to Design with Diego & MiguelDiego GV will place us in the current agroecological context. Later, we will move on to the practical aspect. In this session, we will learn how to design a garden based on solar exposure, crop type, and other variables. We will study the characteristics of our space, trace contour lines, and create the design for our garden.1
- Day 2: Syntropy with Ana Sosa AyalaThe second day of training, this time led by Ana Sosa Ayala (founder of CALARÁ, an initiative dedicated to the design and training of Syntropic Agroforestry and 'Food Forest' systems), is divided into three parts where she speaks about the benefits of changing the way we cultivate, for the production, the soil, and the community.1
- Day 3: Water with Ismael Caballero and Anael HervásOn the third day of training, Ismael Caballero and Ana Hervás (founders of ISMANA), we speak about water.1
- Day 4: Soil Health and Working the LandOn the fourth day we check the Soil's health and we are working the land.1
- Day 5: Permaculture PrinciplesDiego teaches us how to apply permaculture—a holistic system that mimics the way nature works—to an agroecological production project in order to manage our resources efficiently and locally, without setting aside the most important factor of all: the human one. We will see examples of how to organize our space beyond just cultivation.1
Embark on a transformative five-day journey designed to fundamentally reshape your relationship with the land. This immersive course equips you with the practical skills and theoretical foundations necessary to cultivate resilient, thriving ecosystems and step into the future of sustainable farming.
Led by a team of experienced practitioners, our curriculum is carefully structured to build your knowledge from the ground up. You will begin on Day 1 with a comprehensive Introduction to Design, guided by Diego and Miguel, laying the essential groundwork for holistic systems thinking. On Day 2, Ana Sosa Ayala dives into the powerful concepts of Syntropy, teaching you how to work in harmony with nature’s innate drive toward complex, abundant growth. Day 3 focuses on the lifeblood of any farm—Water—featuring expert insights from Ismael Caballero and Anael Hervás on effective management strategies.
As the week progresses, Day 4 gets hands-on with Soil Health and Working the Land, ensuring you understand the biological foundation of true regeneration. Finally, Day 5 ties the entire experience together through core Permaculture Principles, providing you with a sustainable, actionable framework to apply these profound lessons to your own agricultural projects.
