Peru Field Trips

Ten days in the Sacred Valley, run by the Foundation through Huachuma Works: you learn, you plant at the garden, and you sit in ceremony.

What It Is

Ten days in Pisac, at the lower end of the Sacred Valley. They are field trips: you work, you learn, you work with huachuma, and you plant cactus. It is closer to a course than to a holiday.

On the Huachuma Works site the program is called Huachuma in the Sacred Valley. It is the same ten days, and the whole of it is there.

What You Do

Learning

The ten days sit inside six months: four weekly calls before you travel, teaching in the valley, and four integration sessions after you are home.

Preservation

Everybody who comes plants. Cuttings go into the terraces at the Taray Preservation Garden and they stay there. A cutting set now takes years to reach any size, so the planting is for the years to come.

Ceremony

You sit in ceremony during the ten days. That part of the program is described in full on the Huachuma Works site, with the rest of what the days hold.

Who Runs It

Huachuma Foundation

Runs the Peru field trips, through Huachuma Works, the company it owns. Every dollar of profit returns to the Foundation and is applied to its charitable purposes, which are preservation, education and community.

Huachuma Works

The company the field trips are run through. The applications, the dates and the prices sit on its own site, with the rest of the ten days.
