01
Your Farm Recipe Book
An app that starts from what you already have: manures, leaves, coffee pulp, cassava, molasses. It recommends bokashi, mulch, amendments, liquid fertilizers and pest recipes.
Educational platform
Hierbawena is the school of the soil.
Since 2018 we have grown local varieties, advised farms and taught ecological agriculture. Our audience is empirical farmers, campesinos, youth, children and agronomists. It has to be easy, useful and honest.
02
Farm diagnosis
The user pins their land on a map of Panama: elevation, parent soil and nearby waste sources — sawmills, restaurants, other farms.
03
Practical university
Theory with an exercise. Water and soil first. Then recipes. Every module can be applied the same day on the plot.
Hierbawena ethics
Ecology as the base of our work.
Do not create wasteTrue intelligence is recycling the nutrients now thrown away. Every residue is an input.
No poisonsPoisons in food are an aberration. We grow health, not a product that makes people sick.
Accessible to everyoneClear language. Recipes from what is on hand. Farmer, child or agronomist enter through the same door.

What we already said on the original site.
We are convinced that poisons in our food are an aberration and a one-way road to disease and death. Our work is to assist natural processes so they create wealth and health.
