The Importance of Managing Our Water
Plenitud PR’s farm is located in Las Marías, a town in the western-central mountainous region of the island where rain is very abundant. However, even with some of the most intense rain events on record, our farm has not seen any major problems. Why? Our team uses a combination of different passive water management systems that work together with the natural landscape to control runoff and promote water infiltration in the soil.
The Transformative Power of Natural Building
Few places in the world are blessed with the natural abundance that can be found in Puerto Rico. Geographically, the island has been blessed with a number of microclimates that are abundant with water, sun and soil. However, this same geography makes us more prone to a number of environmental hazards like hurricanes, landslides and earthquakes.
