Bosque Village is a cultural experiment in developing and implementing a human culture which can live without destroying the earth. It is a registered non-profit.
Adventurous people visit the highlands of Mexico from all over the world to learn about permaculture, live close to nature, and develop their awareness and skills.
We live off the electrical grid with a small solar power system, use composting toilets, raise chickens, and practice food forest farming.
We are developing a sustainable culture.
We broadcast and publish out work online via Youtube, Quora and other sites.

So far we have hosted over 3000 visitors as we learn and build systems. We will continue hosting.
But it is time to have more stable participants and residents.
We are defining roles in the Bosque and how people can start businesses here. We are also open to retirees, digital nomads, and other people who can support themselves.
Contact us and we will send a form to fill out to begin explorations of what roles are possible for you here.
Potential residents need to first come as an intern or participant.

Hi, Brian!
In 2007 I dumped everything and have been traveling the world almost nonstop since then. I’ve been on a bicycle since 2011 and haven’t really been able to unpack my panniers for years. In June I’ll be 73. I’ll continue to travel, but now I’m looking for a base I can call home. An ecovillage really is the only place that makes sense to me.
I’m a vegetarian who for the last year has been eating one meal a day (OMAD). I’m not much of a cook, but since undertaking OMAD I’ve developed a big interest in cooking. I haven’t been at a place long enough to be able to engage this interest deeply, though, and I would very much like to do so, in particular bread, kimchi, and tofu.
I’m also deeply interested in vegetable gardens. I’ve passed through numerous permaculture farms around the world and have promoted it to every traveler I’ve come across, but I’ve not taken the certification courses and consequently don’t know the theory. At this stage I’m not sure I have the time or patience for it, but I take it seriously and would like to be involved in a garden.
I’ve spent several years in Latin America including 2 1/2 years in Argentina and some 5 years on and off in Guatemala where I am now. I have a great love for Guatemala, but it has only one partially built ecovillage.
In May I shall start a tour of Mexico taking a look at ecovillages which may serve my needs as a member and to which I can contribute productively.
I would like to visit Bosque Village. Would that be okay? I carry a tent and am fairly self sufficient.
