Garden in the Mountain

Recently I took a trip with my roommates to a small garden on top of a mountain outside of Antigua.   It was absolutely gorgeous there!  The people that take care of the place were so sweet and took us on a tour of all the entire place.  This place grows many things that are native to Guatemala.  They also grow a variety of flowers and had an orchid greenhouse!  While we were walking around, they kept giving us fresh fruits and veggies to try straight from the plant.  The wife of the caretaker also weaved traditional Mayan material.  It was neat to see the process that it entailed.  It was a wonderful time spent with wonderful people!  Here are some pictures.  I know there are a lot of flowers but they were too gorgeous not to share.  Enjoy!
