It was in 1980 when we arrived to the small village of Cellers, an almost abbandoned site in a valley of the country of Lleida, and here in this dry land of oak and olive, of silence and quiet, our compromise was slowly forged within an action of improving, ourselves as well as our receiving&giving qualities, offering in this way our drop in ocean for the process that the earth is actually crossing.
We are like a small laboratory that find it s definition at each step taken, in our comunity life, work,sotial proyection, etc.
* Researching/ working to stabilize a “solidary capital” that would the development of our protection, etc
* Receiving students and people that perceive the need of a deep change in aur daily deeds and doings.
* Being a facilitating bridge of an “exchange” of art and knowledge between populations.
We start with a house and a few workshops that have received hundreds of people, and presend to follow, affirming the research with better means the favour self-valuation and respect between parts.
Many people have passed through the cacao workshop, leaving their donation and receiving from the cacao it s, that of the insight, generous and prosperous.
With the pbjective to waken to a conscious compromise and with the eager to recover the vision of worked with varius native medicines, integrating and combining to mantain our social project, the revaluation of the new rural word of a life in balance with the enviroment and co-educaters of it s citizens.
The capability to proyect and share our work and action in society so as to reach a word brotherhood, recover the trust and the will in front of the big challenges for a dignified survival inside the new paradigma, wiht respect for Mather Earth as our host host. And in this way help create a more stable, spititual and sustainable social change.
The Associations “Terra per la terra” (Eath for the Earh) hopes to help our living together here and learm from the native populations abroad from their medicine, their customs.
