27 + Lorena Terán Ibarra
Regenerative Agriculture in Oaxaca
Lorena Terán Ibarra is the director of Copita Project for El Buho Mezcal where she leads the regenerative agriculture and educational programs. 
Initiated by the founders of El Buho, the Copita Project seeks to replenish and preserve the balance of the natural environment while planting cultivated and semi-cultivated agaves. 
Practicing regenerative, organic agriculture in Copita Field is not a one size fits all solution. Lorena was quite candid in explaining the importance of learning from the environment and adapting to its needs. She makes a case for thoughtful and deliberate interventions and strategies. Methods that take time but ultimately produce the most beneficial long-term and positive environmental impact.  
Gabriel, our co-host, who also works with El Buho was very helpful in organizing the incredible images we posted to our website. The Valles Centrales of Oaxaca experience extreme weather throughout the year and G was able to capture images from the same areas in both the wet and dry seasons. Check them out HERE.
