Our activities
We love sharing information and knowledge because it helps us all grow as a community!
Taking advantage of our connections with knowledgeable individuals, we've decided to organize several talks and workshops throughout the year on various interesting topics such as production, ancestral foods, seeds, and microorganisms, open to all ages.
Our workshops are fun, interactive, and educational. Getting messy is encouraged—age doesn't matter!
And the best part: we always enjoy delicious food during our workshops! We prepare meals using produce from our farm, wherever we may be. Mmm the menu is always different...
We promote and share our activities on social media so you can book your spot in advance ;)
Talks/ Workshops
Field Days
Field days are a resounding success!
Our producer families open up their plots for collective visits. They share their stories of how they started out and how long they've been producing organically, among other interesting details.
Afterwards, they take us on a tour of their farm (depending on the location, we might even harvest vegetables during the walk to take home—it's quite lovely!).
And when we return, a delicious lunch awaits us, complete with refreshments and dessert! It's all made with the family's own produce, often cooked using wood-fired stoves. Absolutely de-li-cious!
We always crave everything our farming families produce, so at the end, we set up a small market where you can take home freshly harvested or produced goods for your own home. It's simply delightful!
The eagerly anticipated annual Fairs!
We host this fair once a year to celebrate and appreciate our production and responsible consumption.
Since it's only once a year, this Fair gives us the opportunity to come together and reconnect as a community. It also allows you to personally meet the families and individuals who produce your food and some of your favorite treats from the year.
Fairs are among our favorite activities. We enjoy offering delicious and nutritious food, talks, cultural presentations, seed sales, product raffles, and a host of other activities.
We love connecting with our people, conscious consumers!
Stay tuned to our social media channels so you can experience and participate in this Annual Enraizadas Fair. Typically, we hold it between November and December.
Fairs
Educational tours
We deeply resonate with educational groups because much of our own learning occurred during our student days, participating in courses and tours that shaped us as individuals and professionals.
That's why we strive to provide these groups with information, experiences, and memories that make a difference in their lives and, in turn, contribute to the evolution of our community and planet.
We are committed to educating all generations, and sharing knowledge fosters community, something we cherish.
We share to educate with love, planting seeds that grow the strongest roots.
Mingas
What are "mingas"?
"Mingas" are an ancestral indigenous agricultural activity that promotes collective work to foster common well-being. The word "minga" comes from the Quechua language, specifically "minka."
In essence, it's a gathering of friends and neighbors to collectively perform free work for someone in the community.
Mingas offer a unique experience compared to other activities at Enraizadas. We visit the farm or plot of one of our producers to assist them with various tasks such as planting, harvesting, building farm infrastructure, cleaning or sorting produce, producing inputs, preparing land—essentially any activity where the producer needs support.
This activity encourages community work and raises awareness about agroecological practices carried out in the fields. It fosters empathy towards producers and their daily work.
And of course, no minga is complete without food. Sharing meals is fundamental to building community. Therefore, after completing our tasks, we all enjoy a shared lunch together.
This is an activity you won't want to miss, especially if you want to teach the youngest members of your household about teamwork, empathy, respect for our natural resources, and gratitude towards the farming families who provide our food each week.
Long live the minga!
