La Finca Agroecológica Utopía es una experiencia de resistencia integral detrás de los cerros de Monserrate en los Andes colombianos. Utopía es un territorio de experiencias alternas donde cultivamos alimentos ancestrales, recuperamos las semillas nativas Andinas y brindamos a otros la oportunidad de experimentar nuestra forma de cultivar la agrobiodiversidad a través de la educación alternativa. Buscamos establecer alianzas con los sectores populares, campesinos y neocampesinos. Nuestros alimentos ancestrales y medicalimentos pueden comprarse vía internet (para despachos en Colombia).
