About Rancho Sol y Mar

Location:

Parcela 48, Mayto, Cabo Corrientes 48400, MX

Mission Statement

To promote healthful, sustainable living, education and construction practices.

Description

Rancho Sol y Mar is a working, off-grid ranch, sustainability education center, guest house and campground located two hours south of Puerto Vallarta on the Pacific Coast of Mexico. At Rancho Sol y Mar, we use the power of the sun to create electricity, heat, pump and recycle water, run electric fencing, as well as cooking and dehydrating the organic foods we grow! We have chickens, horses, a mischievous burro, an equally mischievous dog, and a rollicking herd of happy goats from which we produce artisanal cheeses. We build with adobe, compressed earthblock, cob, stone, and other natural, locally sourced building materials.
We have two opportunities available:
Assist with the cleaning and care of guest house and community building, interacting with guests. This positions includes use of a pop up camper and bulk food supplies.
The second position involves natural building, gardening and basic permaculture. Camping in tents and $7 per day donation to community food and meals.
Please contact us via email or our Facebook page, Rancho Sol y Mar.
Thank you,
