El Campo

At the invitation of some of my friends I live with, I've had the opportunity to spend two weekends at an organic farm and permaculture project in San Carlos, about two hours from Montevideo. At the farm  I have spent time doing the following things: hauling rocks, cutting everything within arms reach with a machete, learning about permaculture, sleeping in a tent, watching a thunderstorm, eating supper by candlelight, learning how to make adobe and drinking absurd amount of mate with a great group of Uruguayans. Here are some pictures from the farm.
