We embrace sustainable living by adopting permaculture ethics and principles in our daily lives. Our goal is to transition from dependent consumers to responsible producers. This journey not only builds essential skills and resilience at home but also strengthens our local communities. By fostering sustainability, we prepare for an uncertain future with reduced energy availability. Join us in creating a sustainable and resilient community.

Casa Arkaana is proudly off-grid, harnessing the power of the Caribbean sun to run entirely on solar energy. This sustainable approach provides us with resilience and independence. Our water is sourced from the world's largest underground river system, ensuring a fresh and clean supply.

We have integrated Syntropic Agroforestry into our permaculture design by planting over 30 fruit trees. This sustainable approach strengthens our connection to nature and provides fresh, organic food for our kitchen. Experience the benefits of agroforestry and enjoy the freshest produce right from our land.

We believe in creating a brighter future for our children and ourselves. We actively support our local community by fostering learning, connection, and participation in sustainable solutions. We are involved in local projects, purchase local produce, and provide scholarships to help individuals flourish. Join us in building a strong, vibrant community in the heart of the Mayan jungle.

Our "Living Farm-acy" is dedicated to growing a variety of medicinal plants to support and sustain our daily lives. We take great responsibility in preserving and cultivating seeds for future generations. By integrating traditional and sustainable practices, we ensure a continuous supply of natural remedies that promote health and well-being.

We are committed to protecting our water resources and giving back to the earth. Our dry compost toilets utilize a slow decomposition process aided by red Californian worms. This method produces a highly nutritious and safe compost, which we use as a rich fertilizer for our trees, promoting sustainable and eco-friendly practices.

We prioritize sustainable waste management practices. We meticulously separate recyclable materials and compost all organic kitchen waste, feeding it to our chickens. Our greywater undergoes natural filtration in our wetlands, resulting in nutrient-rich water used to cultivate delicious food and vibrant flowers.
