- This is the incredible story of a small hidden Mayan village in the Guatemalan highlands that transformed a monoculture plantation into a diversified agricultural system that supports the original families that worked the plantation and their descendents. This unique example of regenerative community works with nature to create abundance with the river and natural resources that flow through the land
This is how we should live like. Helping each other in hardworking communities. No running against the clock, no greedy overconsumption, fresh air and water, real food ❤
Thanks for this video. You do a great job with the story, and I hope you will revisit the subject and tell more of the individual families and what they are doing and how they see the community. The guy you interviewed was a really good advocate for them. I love his passion.
Wow! This is one of the best permaculture videos i've seen and the story you told was inspiring. Viva las comunidades!
SO AMAZING!! Well done & beautiful! A story that must be told!! THANK YOU OLIVER!!!!
Wow, thank you for bringing us this story. Terrific!
Oh that Watercress! I'm from Pa, and all my aunts had streams on their land and it grew there. I love it. Oh what a beautiful Paradise. Well done, community!!
thanks for this beautiful video... makes me want to discover more of Guatemala out of the mainstream Antigua and Lago Atitlan... This is a really beautiful and dreamy place
That was one of best permaculture video I ever see.
This is how I want to live..
Inspiring!!
8:28 “living together in nature with my friends” you’re living the dream alright brother
What an awesome community and great video. Thank you for sharing this!
Such an inspirational story, place and people. I would love to learn much more about it. I would definitely watch at much longer movie on the place, how long ago the bank gave the land to the people, how they organised so well and co-operate, how it developed from the early days until now etc
Agreed. We definitely need a longer film!
Absolutely stunning and amazing! Thank you for mentioning this beauty in yesterday's Climate Farmers Skill Exchange, Oliver!
My pleasure Beate. Great to see you on the call!
So inspiring. We should take these principles everywhere 12:31
So happy to see their story told
What an inspiration. Thanks for sharing.
Outstanding first episode. Congratulations.
Thank you for this very interesting story. Perhaps this community can consider offering very select ecotoursim opportunities. This would help raise funds which can be put aside for eventually creating some garbage and sanitation infrastructure.
Increíble!!! Muy buen trabajo!!! Muy interesante, buen contenido y buena edición. Felicidades. Muchas gracias por compartir. ;-)
I would do a permaculture tour in this amazing place ! Do they open their farms for this ?
Awesome work brother, spread the good news.
Quality! This guy should be on Netflix!
I know right
not him, but the people that make it possible! he is just showing it!
This is a wonderful highlight of a community getting together to improve their lives. If it has not already mentioned in the comments, the Korean natural farming JADAM would be helpful in avoiding harmful pesticides.
That’s sovereignty right there
Thank you #savesoil
What a wonderful story of a resilient people 😊
Beautiful!
communities into cooperatives! brilliant :))
amazing project, thank you for sharing this
Thanks for sharing! Greetings from the magic island of Sri Lanka
Wow, thanks for sharing!
Fantastic story.
I have been to Quixaya. I did see some people using chemical sprayers, but not much. It is a beautiful and amazing place. I do hope for their success. If they succeed there are many other similar areas in this mid elevation area that could do the same thing. Really appreciated spending time there with the locals and sampling the food.
Lucky people beautiful land I will build a pond in my backyard with running water to grow Watercrest
Merci 😙
amazing where its located?
Eden
Oliver - great video. Can you post more info for people interested in visiting their site? Do they have a website or contact email? Thanks!
This is wonderful! This is not new. People has been doing this all over the world forever. Is in the western world were this type of economies died, for many reasons. A lot of these people are humble, hard-working, Religious, family oriented, they live poor to our standards but rich in many other things. Not to many years ago Rural Mexico was like that until the government took their water or land by force, so many of them moved to the cities or usa to work in the fields or factories.The Mexican Revolution started because of the usa Imperialism & The Mexican government. Many people want better things but they aren't willing to give up their comforts & their egos.Don't expect anything from any government, If you want a positive change start with YOURSELF!
😍🇬🇹
why only a few views?
Nice we could go help them to build an inner economy. If that s the only probleme they got. Pesticide could be transforme for natural one.
I need to get more info for this place befor i reach guatemala. A big thanks for this amazing video

For location, this could help:

All that plastic can be transformed into gas, kerosene, & diesel fuel thru the process of pyrolysis.
Would of loved if oliver mansplained less
