Community Description
We recently started to build a little off-grid project, the idea is to have a Glampling Eco-Resort (we built a nice eco cabin so far) located in the mountains of north Mexico near the border with the USA (San Diego), 30 mins. driving to the only magic town in the state of Baja California, Tecate. Much more than just a Boutique Resort, it will be a healing center and an amazing place for retreats, events and workshops, a space for people to meet, learn, relax and explore a holistic life. We are setting up a small organic/permaculture garden.
We are mostly open for partners/members and really looking forward to hosting creative, hard-working, proactive, skillful, friendly, open minded and flexible volunteers with a POSITIVE attitude! If you are OPEN MINDED, looking for a quiet place, with nature beauty all around, within an environmental preservation zone, your place can be here. You may have the opportunity to visit many beautiful spots in the state. Vegan Gay Friendly. Come Join us!

1 Review for Oranim
My daughter and I relocated for safety reasons in 2016. We are now in Monterrey where she is finishing her third year of medical school. She decided to be vegan 5 years ago and I saw that it was the right thing to do and followed suit a week later. Her reason for becoming a doctor is for others to listen to her when she tells them that they need to be vegan. With the “M.D.” after her name, it will have more clout. For us it is all about the animals and making a difference. We have fifteen rescued chickens and two rescued dogs. We would like to be part of a vegan community once she is out of med. school.
