When you donate $25 or more to help us plant agave, we’ll send you a copy of El Tiempo en las Raices as a thank-you gift. Your money will go to the middle school in Zaachila where students are growing tobala agave from seed. Your donation will allow us to purchase 25 of the seedling agaves, which we will gift to one of the small families who are making heirloom agave spirits in rural Mexico.

El Tiempo en las Raices is artist Dani Eizirik’s memoir of his 2017 trip through Oaxaca. Dani visited five families involved in the production of heirloom agave spirits to document what their world looks like, in words and art. The result is this beautiful, 128-page, handmade book, published by Rezpiral and Riacho.me. It includes both Spanish and English.
