About this episode
This eipsode is brought to you from... Ecuador! This episode is a taste of our recent trip with EcoEndurance to Ecuador. In this episode, Alejandro allowed us to record some of the history of conservation at Mashpi Chocolate which the group visits on Day 2 of the EcoEndurance tour in the cloud forest. Alejandro is the reserve's ecologist. In addition to having in-depth knowledge of everything related to cocoa cultivation and working directly in its production, he is in charge of planting other species that accompany the cocoa trees. He does research on biodiversity and is a naturalist with a fierce gaze and feline intuition. Alejo also guides visitors on the farm and gives workshops on the permacultural management of our crop and our reserve. We are planning our next tour for 2027! Join us for an unforgettable journey in Ecuador with EcoEndurance. Reach out at aimee@therunningkind.net.
