So much to praise. Still so much to accomplish.

Intensive farming in Rio Hondo outside Manizales.

I have just returned from another stunning month in Colombia. I was able to cover a lot of territory, visiting Bogota twice, Manizales in the Coffee region, Cali and the sugarcane fields of the Valle del Cauca in the Southwest and remote fishing villages on the Pacific Coast, north of the port, Buenaventura. I was also fortunate to speak with some of the leading ecological practitioners in the country and gain some remarkable insights. The purpose of this blog is to share this growing body of information with a wider public, especially those who may only associate Colombia with the war on drugs and large scale defoliation.

The entries are organized by theme: Transportation, Organic Farming, Urban Agriculture, Ecologically Appropriate Construction  - and more.
