"I went to Finca Las Brisas in March of 2007 with my wife Winifred. Driving up to the property I was impressed with the road. I had read and heard so much about how the roads in Costa Rica were questionable, but this road was newly graded with adequate drainage. Al Benner and Mark Janiczek greeted us as we entered the gate to the property. Al’s enthusiasm and Marks’ building savvy came through as they talked about the project. Their vision is grounded in a plan made up of practical steps. They want to make it happen in a sustainable coherent manner with respect for the land and neighbors. Renewable energy, the planting of fruit trees, living tree fences, and clay bricks from the soil were all discussed. Before we left in two days some bricks had been made, plans for the solar water heater, and testing the river for hydro had been started. And… the local crew had installed another row of living tree fences. Impressive.

We walked up onto the crest of the hill and looked to the west. The rolling hills lead to the ocean. The soft wind and birds filled the air. It was peaceful and majestic as you looked in every direction. The sound of the river came up from below. We picked up a newly fallen mango to sustain our walk down to the river and waterfalls. The river snaked through the valley punctuated with waterfalls. An old small corral was nestled in the corner of one bend. Great views, plenty of water, and a diverse eco-system of trees and vegetation have made me start dreaming of the possibilities of being part of this project and community of kindred souls.

Nine months have passed and Al and his team have done everything they told us they wanted to accomplish this year. I’m impressed with their dedication to envisioning a sustainable community with respect to the environment and community already there. I’m looking forward to revisiting Finca Las Brisas in a couple of weeks. The finished development plan and concept drawing of the community center just sparks the curiosity and imagination of what could happen here." John - Mill Valley, CA
