• Organic agricultural products.
• Milk and its derivatives are produced from the goat project.
• Bakery.
• Arts and crafts.
• Seminaries and consultant services.
• Eco tourism.

 The production of food covers the needs of the community, the surplus is sold in Buenos Aires.  The additional income comes from the eco
