Founded in the year of the elephant by Alexander Tinti Refugio sits on over sixty acres of land that is now abundant with essential native plants animals and microorganisms It is an excellent example of permaculture a practice that reconciles human societies with the natural environment Its core pillars are self-sufficiency sustainable architecture habitat regeneration and self-regeneration The land that Refugio Tinti sits on was once primary rainforest then a site where toxic waste was dumped and later taken over by cattle farming This left the land barren and the soil completely compacted and depleted Alexander saw this as an experiment and opportunity to see if what once was could one day be again Then I experimented with my own garden until I felt now I'm ready to do something bigger And this place here is twenty-four hectares and it borders on the national park Piedras Blancas which is fourteen thousand hectares And our concept here was to expand the park And after years of patience practice and letting nature take back its land Refugio Tinti now thrives with multiple abundant food forests and a greenhouse wet and dry compost a self-sufficient water filtration system housing for guests and volunteers alike a solar-powered food dehydrator and grounds for some locals to stop by Our goal here is to raise biodiversity to restore whatever is left and to help nature to recover because she is incredibly resourceful and recovers very fast as long as you let her Alexander is also working with local communities to create school programs to educate children on the power and impact they can have in their own homes and on the surrounding environment
