We invite all rainbow warriors, pixies, nomads, artists, activists, dreamers and thinkers to this event of actually making the earth greener.
We are projecting to plant 17500 fruit trees in an amazing paradise at the foothills of the Chichonal Volcano in northern Chiapas, Mexico on the full moon of August.
Check it out www.events.nomadsunited.com Free vegetarian food will be prepared as an exchange for planting 5 trees a day, the event will last 6 days, and will end in a pilgrimage to the active volcano.
The area is amazingly rich naturally, thermal springs, rivers, animals and an amazing multi colored lake in the volcano’s crater.

We ask from those coming to help us plant fruit trees to lay the first seeds for a possible future Ecommunity.
Participants are required to sign a Eco-Ethical compromise letter upon entry that will help protect the natural environment.
Besides the reforestation activities, there will be many workshops like African dance classes, Drumming circles, vision councils, tribal shamanic dancing, ethnic music from all over the world, horse riding, martial arts, biodance, community intelligence, Maya calendar and many more improvised workshop We have a limited capacity for up to 700 people, so please register before coming by mailing to reserve@nomadsunited.com we will be sending you a reply with the exact location.
A rainbow quest
After generations of gatherings and as the nomadic tribes move through the earth, we seek and project alternatives on how to expand and influence the world with our love and peace philosophy, the gatherings have been a great source of teaching, though yet the all too many are oblivious of the alternatives to help the earth and her creatures live in greater harmony.
As an extension of the gatherings we have created the caravans, that have been able to bring people together to travel to places to gather, places where we can share this affinity, moving in groups we have traveled all over the earth, though still on cars, planes and ways that are not as congruent to the messages imparted by the hopi prophecies that talk about making the earth greener, most of the rainbow people use the gatherings as leisure celebrations and occasionally workshops take place, though are we actually effectively influencing the world to become greener?.
As every time more people, realize the possibilities of living in sustainable communities and traveling on horses, and in this way helping to revitalize the earth, while the all too many make it greyer, more artificial. We are natural beings created in a natural environment though we keep on creating more things to live comfortably and subdue the natural elements, which we form a part of. After many years of traveling the earth on horses we have finally created a system of organic movement that has allowed us to cover distances, discover new places, live in a tribal context, and become a vehicle for spreading the messages of how we can help the earth become greener.

About us…
The last horse caravan started in may, 2004 in Costa Rica as an extension of the 4th world rainbow gathering.
Now we are entering our 25th month of riding north through mountains, beaches, jungles, fields, desserts, trails, rivers, in discovery of the source of the horizon and the birthplace of the rainbow. Long after most caravans have dispersed from which many have returned to Babylon, the horse caravan still moves on extending the gathering into a moving organic way of life representing the spirits of the rainbow warriors.
This magical epic has transformed the bodies and souls of more than 300 people from all over the world.
The horse caravans have been ongoing since 1998 in many places throughout the planet, through areas like Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, India, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, and now Mexico.

The projects
We have already started the project earth shield on the 26th of December, The project aims on creating a wave of environmental awareness, by moving on horses in nomadic tribes among rural villages, and creating cultural events, environmental education in schools, permaculture workshops, seed spreading, reforestation festivals, sustainability workshops, eco design and all along a trail that will be marked where a database of possible future communities can be established along a greener trail.
