Serene Light Gardens

After many learning processes, a 3-years experiment in a rented farm in Los Silos, and a journey exploring and working in different projects in Brazil, Costa Rica, France, Portugal and the South of mainland Spain, we finally bought a piece of land in Bajamar, Tenerife. The Land is extremely well situated at walkind distance to the natural pools of Bajamar, the natural park of Anaga, the surf beach arenal, a complete health food shop and bus stop.

Although not yet suitable for being inhabited, it will accommodate perfectly with the new PGO (Territorial General Planning) and the new Land Law, the creation of a therapeutic and educational eco-center that will serve as a model and reference for a lifestyle integrated with our natural environment, as well as a research space where we can teach, learn and share with one another everything related to sustainable living.With the new PGO (as promised by the City Council technicians), the educational center and a guard house will be allowed, in addition to the corresponding agricultural infrastructures.

Our vision of the future is of creative bioconstructive infrastructures that will enhance the place as an authentic work of art, including a botanical-artistic garden with a great variety of trees, shrubs and plants that will provide food, health, beauty and all kinds of useful materials in a system of ample biodiversity through the different strategies and techniques of Permaculture. Our goal with this educational center is to inspire from there the creation of sustainable areas (as is for example the “eco-eje” of Añaza in the East of Tenerife): that other farms in the surroundings will be managed in a sustainable manner, stimulating diverse collaborative eco-projects, as well as the progress of society as a whole towards a more harmonious, conscious and responsible way of life.

We are passionately and actively engaged with the “Embracing the World” organization for its humanitarian and environmental focus. This organization perform a great and significant work in making this Planet a place for peace, love and equality.
