Interesting opportunity - Organic Farm in Costa Rica
Hello everyone,
I recently purchased a piece of land in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. It is
part of an organic farm that involves a handful of experienced organic
growers - both Tico and Gringo. It does not require that you locate in
Costa Rica, although, if you chose to be directly involved and put you
hands on the project that would be wonderful.
The group has already had some success with the growing and marketing
of macadamia nuts, ginger and various medicinal herbs. We hope to
expand into sundried fruits and vegetables as well as increase our
acreage in medicinal herbs.
The property is in a beautiful area of semi-arid Guanacaste. It is
known as the Tenorio Project. The Rio Tenorio runs the entire length of
the property. Each parcel has river frontage. The parcels are 6
hectares (15 acres +/-). At the current time there are 2 or 3 parcels
remaining of the eight original. The total monthly cost is less than
$200.00(US). There is no real down payment except for the legal and
survey fees which are less than $500.00. At this rate of payment, the
each parcelwill be paid out in 5 years. Although the land is
accessible, there will be some infrastructure development costs (well
drilling, solar power, water lines, grading for gravel roads,
etc..etc..) these costs will be borne by the ownership group as a
whole.
That last point brings up an important aspect of this project. It will
require people of like mind and lifestyle who are willing to work
together, whether from a distance or with hands on. This is a totally
organic venture that will require a collective focus of thought and
action.
There is much information available. If you think you may be
interested, please feel free to write me a message at my personnal

be answered.
Thanx
Cody
