Hi, Mia! Thank you for posting about your interest in finding land and establishing mutually supportive community in Oaxaca. A few friends and I are also searching in Mexico for high-elevation property with cooler temps, good water, year-round growing conditions and neighbors who are using permaculture principles to support a healthy ecosystem. In short, the general intent you presented is in accord with our own wishes. Although we have mostly been searching in the Sierra Norte of Puebla and a bit in Hidalgo, we're open to shifting direction if conducive conditions appear elsewhere.
I was hoping to accomplish this without FB, but I may have to accept Melissa's good suggestion to use it to establish more connections with the permaculture community here . . .
Anyway, I would be happy to receive an update on how your search is going, what you have learned, and how your plans have evolved since your original post. I'd also welcome hearing from you here:
