Collect rainwater, grow a vegetable garden, keep chickens and become a gentleman or lady farmer. Join this budding agrihood with a master plan for six farmhouses, designed by Luc Monzies, a landscape architect and pillar of San Miguel’s Slow Food Movement. He is the founder of Mercado SANO and TOSMA, a weekly organic farmer’s market, green grocer of Bodega Organica and develops agrihood projects across Mexico.   

This ecovillage’s stunning rural setting paired with its proximity to the cafes, restaurants, shops and services of San Miguel’s new downtown— just a 20-minute drive to The Ancha— makes it a choice option for greenthumbs looking to build their dream home with a light and sustainable footprint in the country.     

The land measures 31 m by 25 m and the site sits behind a large natural pool. The access road provides an additional buffer. This means the lot has no immediately adjacent neighbours on two sides of its square. 

It sits at the back of the ecovillage’s cluster, slightly uphill from any existing buildings and has unobstructed western views of the dam and the rugged mountains of the altiplano beyond. To the east, it’s an entirely different scene, the awesome rigged cliffs of Los Picachos Volcano (extinct!) rise up in dramatic fashion and embrace the land below.

Come for the lot and the views. Stay for the community, food security and sustainability.
