What we do

Huertos Urbanos de Costa Rica es una comunidad virtual y física que busca conectar personas y proyectos que se encuentren cerca geográficamente para que puedan compartir miembros, materiales y/o conocimiento para así crecer y fortalecerse. No es necesario tener conocimiento del tema, ni tener un huerto ya establecido. Aquí podemos aprender unos de otros e ir dándole forma a muchos proyectos.
El grupo prioriza cooperación/colaboración sobre ventas. Hay muchas alternativas para aplicar en un Huerto Urbano, nosotros nos enfocamos en aquellas regenerativas, naturales y responsables.

Social Media Intern for GEN International Hours: Up to 20/month, flexible around your schedule and availability Location: Remote, work with Eva Goldfarb Focus: Instagram + LinkedIn (TikTok if you’re into it!) Hi! I’m Eva, and I run social media for GEN International — the global network connecting ecovillages, intentional communities, and regenerative culture-builders across every continent. I’m looking for a co-conspirator to help me tell the stories of the people quietly building the future: off-grid villages in the Philippines, permaculture farms in Senegal, urban cohousing projects in Berlin, elders passing down land wisdom in the Andes. It’s a wildly rich, wildly underrepresented world, and I want more people to fall in love with it the way I have. What you’ll actually do: Dream up and create content for Instagram and LinkedIn (reels, carousels, stories, captions that don’t sound like a corporate newsletter) Dig into our global network and turn your findings into stories people want to share Pitch your own ideas. If there’s a series, a theme, a format, or a corner of the network that lights you up, that’s what I want you to focus on. What we’re looking for: A natural storyteller, someone who can spot the human thread in a project update or a photo from a faraway village Genuinely curious about ecovillages, sustainability, intentional community, regenerative living Self-motivated and communicative; this is a flexible, trust-based role Why this role: This isn’t a “post 3x a week and don’t ask questions” internship. You’ll have real creative freedom to work on what excites you, learn how a global grassroots network tells its story, and build a portfolio full of meaningful, purpose-driven content. Plus you’ll be talking to people living some of the most interesting, intentional lives on the planet. If storytelling for a better world sounds like your kind of fun, let’s talk.

Ecotratamiento de Aguas Residuales

Agua es vida, el recurso más importante de todos. Desde la perspectiva de Sunseed como un centro educativo sobre la vida de bajo impacto nos gustaría ofrecerles un curso para aprender, profundizar e intercambiar los conocimientos teóricos y prácticos sobre el cuidado de agua. El curso va a estar enfocado principalmente en el tema de saneamiento ecológico de aguas residuales, cubriendo a la vez los aspectos teóricos de potabilización de agua y aprovechamiento de agua lluvia. Vamos a aprender como diseñar y construir un sistema completo de tratamiento de aguas grises a través de la construcción de humedales artificiales de flujo subsuperficial, en cuales se trata de la utilización de plantas acuáticas para depurar las aguas residuales que han tenido un tratamiento primario. Los humedales artificiales son canales de gravilla sembrados con las plantas depuradoras, han sido aplicadas y debidamente reguladas en varios países de Europa y ofrecen una alternativa sana y segura tanto para autogestionar los recursos de agua como poder reutilizar agua tratada en un hogar. Usando herramientas como power point, videos y charlas vamos a aprender sobre el diseño y aspectos claves para tener en cuenta construyendo nuestro sistema casero. En tiempo libre vamos a divertirnos con juegos, música y baños en una poza cercana. El curso va a estar dividido en partes teóricas y prácticas. La parte práctica va a incluir – Diseño de un sistema completo de tratamiento de aguas residuales – las tuberías, tratamiento primario (trampas de grasa y tanques sépticos), tratamiento secundario (Humedales Artificiales de Flujo Subsuperficial), riego con aguas grises. – Construcción de una trampa de grasa como el tratamiento primario – Preparación de un humedal artificial de flujo horizontal – impermeabilización y conexiones. Parte teórica va a cubrir la introducción a la potabilización de agua y aprovechamiento de agua lluvia. Para mejorar nuestra experiencia educativa vamos a definir los aspec
