What Luna Mia Farm
is all about

We are seed keepers and guardians of biodiversity. We are a Mayan-Canadian family who strives to keep traditional knowledge alive through seed saving, farming, and teaching on our regenerative farm. “Regenerative” means we grow amaranth in a way that actively improves the soil and boosts biodiversity.

We offer workshops and farm tours. We also create delicious treats with amaranth grown right here on our farm. We specialize in amaranth chocolate bars, alegria bars (“happiness” in Spanish), popped amaranth, and amaranth flour. We use only premium fair-trade organic chocolate sourced through a collaborative partnership with ChocoSol, a bean-to-bar social enterprise based in Toronto.

Sustainability is at the root of everything we do. We work with nature to improve the land – rather than against it – and manage our farm as a living ecosystem.

Luna Mia Farm is located in Desboro, Ontario.

About Rony & Myriam

Just a few years ago, we were running the Mesoamerican Permaculture Insitute in Guatemala.

Then we moved to Canada and started a regenerative farm.

We envisioned a farm that honours the Earth – where biodiversity can thrive, food can be abundant, and knowledge can be shared.

Slowly, we applied permaculture techniques to regenerate the land.

We continue to use regenerative practices based on traditional knowledge, and we teach the lessons we learned along the way. We also make delicious treats using amaranth that we grow and harvest ourselves on our farm.


Rony’s work in Guatemala

“Rony, your permaculture project is the best of all Latin America.”

“Those guys know more about permaculture than I ever will.”
