Riley Jack Evans's Contacts

Riley Jack Evans's Farms

What is your previous experience with Organic Agriculture and Sustainable Development?: I have just began on the path of learning and developing knowledge and application of organic agriculture and sustainability. I have always been environmentally conscious and active through gardening and growing my own food.

What are your reasons for joining WWOOF Mexico?: Learning about sustainable living and agriculture, Getting to know Mexico better, Other

What do you want the farms and fellow WWOOFers to know about you?: I am a well mannered, creative, studious, and considerate individual. I enjoy many hobbies, surfing, skating, snowsurfing, yoga, reading and writing, creating art and structures, gardening, cooking, and traveling. I've recently began taking a great interest in gaining ways and tools to become closer to living a self sustained life, detached from society and only interacting with people of similar paths of life. I've always had an innate connection with the natural world. I've always felt discomforted and disgust with the societal structure of today and the behavior it induces upon earth. These feelings have been growing more passionately and heavy. All I can do you is create opportunities and experience them and take from them knowledge that I can apply to my aspirations, in obtaining peace.

Thanks for offering to help. We do not think that we will have any general projects for wwoofers at that time but you are welcome to check with us again as we get closer to June. One specialized project we have that would fit nicely in that timeframe is to map our property. INAH requires a detailed topographic map of our entire property because most of it is an archeological zone and the rest has historical monuments. We have an older but very accurate Trimble GPS system here. So please let us know if you know anything about GIS.

If not and you are passing through this region we invite you to stop by for a visit.

Our email is sp4short@aol.com.

I read that you are interested in adobe building, which is what we are in the process of doing right now at Divertigranja in Etla, Oaxaca. It is a cabaña with carrizo (bamboo-like material) walls onto which we are smearing the adobe. Next, we are experimenting with mud/nopal/lime plaster for the finish coats. All local materials. Check out our farm profile and contact me if you're interested.
Best,
Emily
