Urban Orchard in Desierto de los Leones in Mexico City

A variety of over two hundred different plants, most of them native Mexican plants, makes for a unique and special experience to any and all plant-lovers.
As you enter the lush space, you’ll see an abundance of greenery and observe first-hand the subtle interactions within our fruit tree guilds, hügelkulturs, and garden beds.
The orchard has grown to sustain several species of birds, insects, mammals, and reptiles; discovering such relations can help us bridge the gap between ourselves and our food. The yumminess of a live, lush patch of Swiss chard can’t be easily matched—it’s like you’re meant to take a bite.
Ideal for plant enthusiasts and adventure seekers, you'll gain insider knowledge on how we carry the summer flavors into the winter.
Come, meet our chickens, and get your hands a little dirty as you forage for delicious, nutrient-packed veggies, seasonal fruits, or even seeds and flowers.
Join us for an immersive experience you won’t forget.
