Goat herder is an audiovisual about Jose Acosta Sierra, a man from southern Spain who has spent his entire life under the big open sky, walking with his goats and sheep.

He gives his perspective on modern society´s relationship with the land and suggests we should return to organic and natural milenary farming in harmony with nature.

Here you can watch the audio-slide show about Jose Acosta Sierra

3000 years of salt

I want to share a story about the salt mine called Salinas de Hortales.  It's located in the town I grew up, in an area where the Phoenicians settled 3,000 years ago. The salt mine was later part of the Roman empire's legendary city of Iptuci, located 100 kilometers from the sea in a mountainous region of  the Sierra de Cadiz. Today, the family that mines the salt flat uses the same centuries-old natural techniques in the village of Prado del Rey in southern Spain's Andalusia.
