WELCOME TO RANCHO ORGANICO!

We have a wonderful organic greenhouse and garden on the outskirts of San Cristóbal de Las Casas in Chiapas, Mexico. We have received over 500 volunteers since the year 2000 whom have come to share or learn about organic gardening and living as sustainable as possible with our environment. Current projects are constructing new composting toilets and solar showers. We foster a family-type setting where everyone helps with a bit of everything. We cater to individuals and families who thrive on sharing with our indigenous neighbors as well. We are animal lovers and currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats and 4 kittens and worms. Yes, we've recently added worms to our menagerie! Their manure is twice as efficient as our regular compost and the compost tea they provide is the best organic insecticide we've found. Our neighbors have horses, pigs, ducks, chickens, and geese. We also teach both Spanish and English lessons using the highly effective and very fun TPRS method. We ask that your visit be a minimum of 1 week, but are equipped for long-term stays as well. Just click below to write us for more details.
