Punta Mona

Costa Rica

We are an intentional community/educational center for sustainability and permaculture located in the rainforest on Costa Rica’s southern Caribbean coast.

We offer internships, host student groups, provide permaculture courses and various workshops, and offer guest services to interested parties.

We are off the grid through use of solar power. We use rain catchers for water, grow organic food, live in houses made from found lumber, and try to live as peacefully and consciously as possible while educating others.
