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.

El periodo de cosecha se ha fraccionado bastante, por lo que se pudo observar plantas con frutos ya maduros – verdes y floreciendo al mismo tiempo. Generalmente se prefiere que la floración se concentre, así la cosecha también se concentrara… A la fecha hemos realizado 4 recogidas y pienso faltaran 2 para completar el proceso. Se ha establecido que la floración del café es inducida por estrés hídrico alternado por un periodo lluvioso… La floración en el 2015 fue tan errática como el clima. Manejo de la Cosecha La calidad del café está muy relacionada con el manejo al momento de cosecharlo Esta es la primera cosecha que manejamos en la Aldea y ha permitido identificar como podremos ir mejorando la calidad: 1. Se identificaron áreas con muchas plantas enfermas de fumagina que necesitan un manejo de la sombra o necesitan ser reanimadas con poda. 2. Hay que enfatizar en cosechar solo granos maduros (separar los verdes). 3. Despulpar inmediatamente después de la cosecha. 4. Mejorar las condiciones de lavado 5. En la actualidad multiplicamos microorganismos eficientes locales para aplicarlos en forma de té al suelo y a las plantas. 6. Se comienza a Identificar la vegetación (no agresiva) la que coopera con el establecimiento del colchón, debajo de la sombra. 7. Siembra de guineos en las áreas muy soleadas. En las próximas semanas tendremos a la venta parte del café cosechado, deseando que lo disfruten. Esperando que en el 2016 llueva mucho más café en la Ecoaldea, si es que el clima lo permite.
