Self-sufficient living on an eco-ranch

About me

Located in a rural, mountainous, and indigenous region of Querétaro, Mexico, the Eco-Ranch Ar Däzu is more than a physical space: it is a life project, a refuge for learning, and an invitation to reconnect with what is essential. Rooted in sustainability and self‑sufficiency, the ranch is an off‑grid initiative that embodies regenerative management in energy, water, and food systems. Solar power sustains its energy needs, watershed stewardship and rainwater harvesting secure water resilience, and agroecological food production nurtures both people and the land. Together, these practices cultivate a vision of harmony between community and territory, offering a living example of resilience, regeneration, and collective stewardship.
EcoWayfinder – Empowerment Beyond Education extends this vision into the realm of transformative education. It is a platform that serves both as an on‑site and off‑site training center, dedicated to sustainability and personal development. Here, learning is experiential, ethical, and liberating, fostering empowerment that goes beyond traditional education. In addition, the project representative is co-founder of the Socio-environmental Network of Amealco with about 288 members, a network of socio‑environmental initiatives that strengthens collaboration, amplifies impact, and weaves local efforts into a broader movement for ecological and social transformation.
Together, these initiatives form a living ecosystem of practice and vision: a grounded space where knowledge becomes embodied action, and a compass guiding communities and a compass guiding communities toward regenerative futures.

The Pioneers of Gaia Ashram , 5th of July– 2nd of August 2015 The Gaia Ashram Internship is a one month program on Ecovillage Design, Permaculture and Deep Ecology. The internship will be a holistic participatory learning experience & process. Interns will experience being part of the Gaia Ashram Community and we will live together for one month at– Gaia Ashram-. At Gaia Ashram we belief in holistic learning that balances the head, hands & heart. Gaia Ashram encourages participatory learning & values the power of community in holding the learning space. We design the daily & weekly structure of the internship and of our lives here based on these values and principles. Theoretical learning (Head) The theoretical sessions will be participatory and interactive. It will cover the 4 keys of Ecovillage Design Education (Social, Economical, Ecological and Worldview inspired by Gaia Education). Each week will cover one of the Ecovillage Design Keys and integrated into this we will be introduced to Permaculture Design & Deep Ecology in terms of philosophy, movement and personal experiences. Overall, We will have a maximum of 2-3 hours of theory per day on the session days, to also create lots of space for practical experiential learning. See more details of the key content below. Practical learning (Hands – on) For the hands – on practical learning we will be developing the Gaia Ashram’s farm and restoring nature on the Gaia Ashram land using permaculture strategies & techniques that are appropriate for the Rainy Season & the land and its local context. The hands-on work will focus on Gardening work i.e. developing the vegetable gardens, planting seeds & seedlings, transplanting, propagation of plants, making composts, growing and maintaining a Food Forest, planting green manures, planting lots of trees, planting seasonal crops. Apart from the Gardening we will also will be doing some natural building which mostly will focus on creating natural finishes usi
