​I'm Macarena. I'm quite handy with my hands and I love to create, make things and have fun while I am doing it. I live on a small farm just outside La Junta and for many years have been making jams and marmalade's and preserves from the fruits in my garden. and greenhouse.

 

I also keep bees, sell honey, make knitwear and embroidery and have an artistic side that I use to create ornaments, petit treasures and things for practical use. 

​

I enjoy working with wood, making carving boards in the shape of the local wildlife or animals that can be found on a typical Patagonian farm, or key rings decorated with local herbs, flowers and birds. 

​

I love painting the rocks that I find in the local rivers, brightly decorating them with everything from owls to foxes. I make sachets filled with Lavander harvested from my garden and little knick knacks that make ideal gifts and memorabilia.

​

My farm is next to the Palena river on the road to Raul Marin Balmaceda, but soon I will have a small shop on the Carretera Austral at the northern end of the village.

​

I look forward to meeting you!
