Bienvenido a nuestro blog del Proyecto Ecologico Artesanal!!

Les damos la mas cordial bienvenida a nuestro Proyecto Ecologico Artesanal aqui en El Remate, Peten, Guatemala.

Nosotros fuimos los primeros conservacionistas...sin saberlo!!!  Hace 22 anos que estamos trabajando con la madera, huesos y piedras.  Fuimos los primeros artesanos en reproducir nuestra herencia Maya, siempre con la vision ecologica y comunitaria. Solo necesitamos un arbol para trabajar todo el ano, trabajando hombres, mujeres y ninos.  Usamos todo el arbol, incluyendo las raices...nada se desperdicia!!  De esta manera ayudamos a conservar y proteger nuestro entorno natural.

Visitenos y conozca nuestros lindos productos.  Estamos en la entrada de la aldea, El Remate, cerca de la casa de informacion de Inguat.  Estamos abiertos todos los dias de 7 a.m hasta 5 p.m.

Los esperamos!!!

Unificación Maya 2010

There are lots of interesting events happening in the village of El Remate.  Each year, from December 15th to 21st, the village is host to Unificación Maya ... a celebration of the winter solstice and countdown to 2012.  Everyone is invited to join the group of Mayan Spiritual Guides from all over Guatemala as they facilitate 7 Sacred Mayan Fire Ceremonies over 7 days in 7 Sacred Mayan Sites.

You can stay in any hotel in the village, and as a registered participant of Unificación Maya, you will be picked up each morning at your door and taken to the daily ceremonial site.

This is an excellent opportunity to learn all about the Mayans in both ancient and modern times.  Spend a week immersed in the culture and spirituality of these wonderful people.  Click here to find out all about Unificación Maya 2010 and start planning your trip now!


To see photos and videos of Unificacion Maya from the last 5 years, visit www.unificacionmaya.com

SIFE Volunteers in Action




Great thanks go to the SIFE volunteers, who have spent the past few days showing the village how to use an electronic medium to let the world know about the warm hospitality they will find in El Remate, the "bedroom community" of Tikal.  In the photo above are (in front) Gabriela de la Bastide, who has been doing an excellent job of translating for the group, (back left) Cameron Hoopes, Scott Manley, Leslie Frye, Joe Irvin III and Jeffriey Shipley, all from Langdale College of Business of Valdosta State University in Georgia. 


SIFE (Students in Free Enterprise) are a non-profit organization educating people on concepts like market economics, entrepreneurship, and business ethics through educational outreach projects.



For the week that they are here, the SIFE group is holding classes and working one-on-one with the business owners of our community to teach us how to use social networking to promote our village and our businesses.  Many small hotel owners now have their own blogs and are also authors on this blog, where we have joined together to showcase the many choices of excellent, safe and comfortable accommodations and restaurants in the village.
