El Huerto Escolar, a project of Tierralegre, is focused on providing ecological education for a sustainable future. The students of the secondary school come to El Huerto to learn innovative techniques which have a direct benefit and application such as bio-intensive gardening, composting systems, application of the 3 Rs (recycle, reduce and re-use), bamboo construction and the natural history of the surrounding ecosystem.
El Huerto Escolar is made possible by Tierralegre, La Secundaria, La Manzanilla Hermosa, La Catalina, La Huerta, Universidad de Guadalajara, Robin and Peter Walford, and the International Community Fund without whose support El Huerto Escolar would not be possible.
Please don't hesitate to reply with any questions.
