TUCKED INTO THE FERTILE VALLEY NEAR THE MAIN ARROYO IN SAN JOSE DEL CABO, ACRE EMERGES AS A TROPICAL OASIS IN THE DESERT, AN ESCAPE COMPLETE WITH FARM-TO-TABLE CUISINE, AWARDWINNING MEZCAL, FRIENDLY FARM ANIMALS, AND MORE. THE MIND BEHIND THE BRAND:
Cameron Watt of Acre IN SAN JOSE DEL CABO
Started by two Canadian friends, Cameron Watt and Stuart McPherson, Acre has expanded since its
opening to include the original restaurant and bar, a pool area, an event space in the mango orchard, luxurious treehouse lodging, a dog adoption program, Fausto’s Diner, and now the in-progress Acre Villas. I recently spoke to co-owner Cameron Watt to learn about the vision behind Acre’s evolution over the last few years and to share his insights for any other expats interested in buying property or starting a business in Baja California Sur. Cameron and Stuart are both from Vancouver, Canada and though they have been friends for 18 years, they never worked on a business together before Acre. As Cameron put it, “About 8 years ago, during a vacation to Cabo, we made the decision to stay down here and go into a business together. It seemed like a perfect spot to try this as the flights to Vancouver are short and the best season in Cabo coincides with the worst season in Vancouver.” It’s true that many visitors and foreign residents of Los Cabos come south to flee cold winters, and the lush Acre property is the perfect antidote to too much snow and ice in the north. The business actually started because the two friends fell in love with the piece of land first, and the brainstorming about what to do with it came later. After tossing around a few ideas, the new business partners decided on opening a farm-to-table restaurant and things have evolved bit by bit since then. Cameron expanded, “We’ve always been good friends over the years so we figured why not be business partners? As you can imagine, two foreigners starting a new business in a foreign country are going to experience a lot of ups and downs. I’m happy to say that our history of friendship allowed us to get through some of the challenging times we’ve faced down here.” Starting a business in a foreign country would challenge anyone, and Acre’s leadership team has seen its share of difficulties over the years. Cameron explained that their “terrible Spanish” is a consistent challenge since even “some of the simplest things become overwhelming confusing” when they don’t speak the local language. Another ongoing challenge for Acre has been sourcing and maintaining the impressive tropical plants that welcome arriving guests into a verdant jungle as they make their way to the restaurant’s entrance. As Cameron explained, “It’s been a lot of trial and error. Some of the most spectacular plants that I was most excited about just don’t work in our specific microclimate. Others have 6

thrived. Between hurricanes, gophers and broken water pumps, I’ve had my hands full!” Luckily for the plant-loving business owners, Los Cabos is full of well-stocked viveros (plant nurseries) and local growers with a wealth of knowledge that they can tap into. On the other hand, there are a lot of positive aspects of opening a business in Baja California Sur, and as Cameron explained, “It’s much easier to get things done down here. Canada has a lot of silly rules and regulations that often get in the way of entrepreneurs.” He also mentioned the weather as a plus, since Vancouver is very rainy and Los Cabos is known for its fabulous weather most of the year. Cameron also acknowledged his hardworking staff, praising that they “take huge pride in the job they are doing. I’m always amazed at their ability to just get something done. I’d have to say they’re problem solvers versus a lot of Canadians who might throw up their hands and give up on something!” This ingenuity is a trademark of Baja locals as the peninsula does not have the same resources as many areas of mainland Mexico or the rest of North America.
TAKEAWAY TIPS
for new expat homeowners and business owners in Baja Sur:
#1
Work on learning as much Spanish as possible before making the move to Baja, as it makes communication so much easier and can help open a lot of doors. Take advantage of helpful apps, hire a tutor, and use workbooks to increase your fluency and practice speaking Spanish as much as possible during your visits to Mexico.
#2 “It’s much easier to get things done down here. Canada has a lot of silly rules and regulations that often get in the way of entrepreneurs.”
Local businesses have to get creative when it comes to sourcing products and solving problems, and teamwork is crucial for accomplishing goals. It’s clear that the Acre team works well together since the business and property successfully grow in size, diversity, and popularity each year. Regarding his business’s changes, Cameron says he feels that the Acre brand “hasn’t changed that much over the last five years. If anything, it’s probably just become more focused and clear.” This is evident in the consistent aesthetic of each aspect of the business, from the restaurant to the treehouses to the website and social media. Looking ahead, Cameron is most excited about the new Acre Villas that will soon be available for fractional ownership. He looks forward to “giving people the ability to make Acre part of their life.” In closing, Cameron had some helpful, general advice for aspiring homeowners and business owners in Baja Sur. He emphasized that it’s important to “take your time and get to really know the area first. Your perception of things
will probably change 180% from when you first start looking.” He finished with some important words of wisdom for anyone considering a move to a foriegn country. “If you’re a foreigner, give up any thoughts you have about how things ‘should be.’ You’ll only end up frustrated and disappointed if you’re expecting things to operate as they do in your home country.” And that’s ultimately the beauty of living somewhere completely new and different - you’ll learn a new lifestyle, a new language, and a new culture. It’s important to let go of your expectations and biases, remain humble, and appreciate local knowledge and skill. Finally, prepare to fall in love with Baja Sur’s temperate climate, stunning landscapes, and kind, generous people. There’s a good chance you’ll never want to leave!
Hire a local farmer, developer, and/or plant expert to help you evaluate the land you are interested in. Getting to know a property’s soil composition, history of usage, and existing plant community will help you decide which lot to purchase based on the building and horticulture projects you’re interested in undertaking.
#3
Work with people you can trust and depend on even in difficult situations, and hire a skilled staff that can grow with the business. Invest in employee training and take care of your staff so that they remain loyal and dedicated to your brand. Also, be open to unique solutions for problems that come up and prepare to get your own hands dirty.
#4
Immersion in the local community is crucial for learning the neighborhoods, business climate, and available niches in an area before investing in a property or business. FOR MORE INFO acrebaja.com FB: AcreBaja IG: acrebaja | acrevillas | acredogs | acre.wedding
ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN
Building With Earth, For the Earth: AN INTERVIEW WITH LOS CABOS ARCHITECT CARLOS ESPINO
N
ew building projects are as synonymous with Los Cabos as pristine beaches and perfect weather, and the coastline looks different every six months as more and more developments and resorts are built. Unfortunately, many of these new building projects don’t take sustainability into account, likely because it isn’t legally necessary and it can require extra money, energy, and creativity. Pursuing sustainable architecture requires many considerations including resiliency of the structure, energy efficiency, the carbon footprint of both the materials used and the building process, and the use of regional methods and artisans. Los Cabos architect Carlos Espino, a specialist in the technique known as “rammed earth building” (tapial or tierra compactada in Spanish), has dedicated himself to sustainable architecture in Baja California Sur and is providing the region with a refreshing alternative to the mega builds and concrete construction that claim more and more beaches every year.
Carlos was born and raised in La Paz and completed his studies at the University of Guadalajara, including an exchange program with the Universitat Politécnic in Valencia, Spain. He holds certifications for Permaculture Design and Ecological Systems, and has studied and worked in Tulum, Quintana Roo, and Tecate, Baja California. After completing his education, Carlos moved to San Jose del Cabo in 2013 and began working with a local architectural firm that shared his passion for ecological building projects. Recently, he founded the Re Estudio Arquitectónico where, with the help of colleagues and skilled workers, he designs and builds “habitats in equilibrium with nature’s cycles and uses, using natural materials and local artisans.” He went on to express, “The sea is my motivation and a source of inspiration, just like the desert landscapes, oases, and other extraordinary places in Baja. I am very fortunate to be able to work here and the fact that people are open 8
BAJAHOMEMAGAZINE.COM
to this type of design and construction provides opportunities for healthier, more sustainable projects.” Carlos chose to pursue rammed earth building in order to learn about and promote a building method that is “more efficient and respectful.” Human civilizations have built their communities this way for thousands of years, all over the world, and in his eyes, “it is culture and tradition, and now we can do it with the help of technology. It’s the past, present, and future.” Rammed earth building is done by repeatedly compacting multiple layers of earth within a framework of wood and steel called “formwork.” Historically, the compaction was accomplished by hand with the end of a wooden pole, though now it is usually done with a mechanical ram. This process leaves the finished wall with faint, visible lines displaying the different layers of earth unless a finishing method is used to erase these differentiations. Oftentimes, these lines are left unaltered as they provide a beautiful, unique aesthetic
to rammed earth walls. The completed walls can be treated with waterproof sealants or protected by eaves to avoid long term erosion from driving rain or consistent moisture. Examples of this type of building can be seen in multiple places in the Los Cabos area, including at Acre restaurant in San Jose del Cabo and at Hierbabuena restaurant in Pescadero, which are both open to the public. Some of the signage for Playa Chileno and the Chileno Bay Club on the Cabo Corridor are also easily visited examples. Within the community of Encanto de La Laguna on the East Cape, there are some exceptional examples of rammed earth buildings as part of private homes. Additionally, the private art center known as Casa Ballena, near the community of La Choya in San Jose del Cabo, is a complex of beautifully designed rammed earth structures that can be partially seen from the road. Carlos passionately described the many advantages of rammed earth building. One major advantage is the fact that the earth or soil used is abundantly available in most construction areas, making it a “beautiful, accessible, and sustainable building material.” Therefore, other environmentally costly materials like wood or cement don’t need to be acquired and transported to the jobsite. This type of architecture also “reduces our dependency on cement, which produces thousands of millions of tons of CO2 each year” during its production and is a commonly used building material in Mexico. He continued, explaining that walls made of compacted earth are “durable, low maintenance, and energetically efficient. They can be load-bearing, regulate humidity, dissipate temperature, and have a high thermal mass.” All of these characteristics are of interest to residents of Baja California Sur. Durability ensures the value of your investment and reduces maintenance needs. The walls’ ability to regulate humidity and temperature is important during the hot and rainy summer in Baja Sur, reducing the need for costly air conditioning running 24/7. This is possible due to the high thermal mass of rammed earth structures. This means that a lot of heat is required to change the temperature of the structure, resulting in slower and smaller temperature fluctuations. High thermal mass is therefore a great way to save on energy costs over time and increases the overall energy efficiency of the building. In Carlos’ opinion, the only real disadvantage of using tierra compactada is that this type of building can be expensive, despite its low cost of materials, since it’s not a standardized system and depends on the context of each project. Hopefully, moving forward, both homeowners and developers will maintain open minds and consider the modernized, traditional practice of rammed earth construction as a way to bring more sustainable architecture to the Baja Sur region. The orange and brown colors of the regional soil create structures that blend seamlessly with the surrounding natural landscapes, and promise durability and energy efficiency. Step away from the monotonous sea of concrete and visit one of the aforementioned locations to see the natural beauty of this type of architecture. Our beautiful Baja California Sur depends on more sustainable development methods if it’s to retain its integrity and ecology in the years to come.

The True Meaning of “Farm-to-Table” and How to Enjoy Locally Sourced Flavors in your Own Kitchen: AN INTERVIEW WITH CHEFS GUILLERMO TELLEZ & LESLIE SWAGER-TELLEZ OF FLORA FARMS

BAJAHOMEMAGAZINE.COM
F
lora Farms, a beloved destination in Los Cabos, is once again open for business and providing the delicious, seasonal food and outdoor ambiance they’re known for. I recently had the chance to chat with the accomplished husband-and-wife team from Flora’s Field Kitchen, Executive Pastry Chef Leslie Swager-Tellez & Executive Chef Guillermo Tellez, about their work in Los Cabos and their personal recommendations for home cooks. Both Leslie and Guillermo got interested in becoming chefs around the same age of 17-18, and met years later when they were both working for world-renowned chef, restaurateur, and humanitarian Charlie Trotter. They eventually got married and moved to Los Cabos in 2003 with their 2-month old baby in tow. Soon after, they met Flora Farms owner Gloria Greene when sourcing farm-fresh vegetables and meat for their work at “C,” a Charlie Trotter-owned restaurant at The One and Only Palmilla resort. In 2015, the Greene family was looking to upgrade their own restaurant and reached out to friends Leslie and Guillermo with their ideas. Together, these longtime Los Cabos residents created the charming and dynamic Flora Farms brand that so many residents and visitors know and love today. When asked about their favorite part of being chefs in Los Cabos, both Leslie and Guillermo agreed that their immersion in delicious, regional ingredients is an exclusive benefit that many chefs don’t have access to. Leslie emphasized, “People [that come here] are amazed at the flavors of seasonal, fresh ingredients and I love that I can provide visitors with that experience.” They both spoke passionately about the intense flavors that fruits and vegetables have during peak season, and how that is something impossible to recreate without a direct relationship to your local farmer. Guillermo elaborated, “We don’t even like to use the phrase ‘farm-to-table’ because we’re literally on the farm.” He went on to say that being a part of “the evolution of products and consulting on the farm’s production and quality, without a middleman, is really unique.” They both also agreed that when the ingredients are fresh and harvested during the correct season, you don’t have to do much with them to make an amazing dish.
Yet this type of relationship with ingredients, and the farm they come from, is something only smaller restaurants and businesses can usually cultivate. As Guillermo explained, “Bigger corporations and hotels are more interested in return on investment... [but] smaller businesses have more flexibility.” To illustrate, a smaller, free-standing restaurant would find it easier to adjust the menu if their farmer’s carrot crop fell victim to flooding, whereas a large hotel that orders huge quantities of product in bulk would have a harder time managing successful changes in response to something like that. This seems like an excellent reason to support smaller local businesses and restaurants, and to encourage them to directly seek out locally produced & seasonal ingredients. Not only would the local area’s food system be strengthened from this type of relationship, but money would remain in the local economy and diners would enjoy more flavorful, regional food. That being said, both Guillermo and Leslie said they support any local “farm-to-table” efforts as long as people use the correct definition of the term. They both specified that in their opinion, the term “farm-to-table” only applies if the restaurant is directly sourcing their ingredients from a local farm, without the use of a middleman. This holds the chefs and business owners accountable and ensures that a direct relationship between restaurant and farmer is established and maintained. This intimate relationship between farm and table is what inspires Leslie and Guillermo each year, and is also the reason they both eschew food trends often seen in the United States. Guillermo described his own philosophy as finding “the best possible ingredients and doing something with them. If you know the product, work with it. Don’t just jump on whatever trend. Think: ‘What can I do with this thing that could be great?’ It takes time, but it’s worth it.” Leslie added that they “walk the farm together every season to get inspired. We can’t go to Pinterest or use the internet because we live in a different environment. We have so many different types of palates to cook for [e.g. residents, travelers] and we want to showcase local flavors. We don’t want to offer what they can get where they’re from.” The chefs have access to many of the same ingredients each year, so creating a new take on the same seasonal flavors is a fun and unique challenge. For example, summer is all about the mangos at Flora Farms and instead of serving mango sorbet again and again, this year, Leslie created a creamy mango panna cotta as a new twist on summer’s bountiful mango harvest. This type of culinary creativity is another rare attribute of a true farm-to-table relationship but is something even home cooks can explore as they begin to get to know locally produced ingredients. To any home cook interested in
“WE DON’T EVEN LIKE TO USE THE PHRASE ‘FARM-TO-TABLE’ BECAUSE WE’RE LITERALLY ON THE FARM.”
learning about their local area’s harvest and how to cook with it, Guillermo advised, “Most important, do a little research and buy something in season, at its peak. You’re not going to get the full flavor if it’s not ripe or ready. Investigate the flavor profile [and remember] you don’t have to do much [when the ingredients are of a high quality and in season].” This encourages a trip to the local farmers market which was Leslie’s first piece of advice. She went on to explain, “Cooler months in Baja are amazing for produce so check farmers markets for what’s in season and learn how to see what looks best. Fresh herbs can also really boost the flavors of fresh ingredients during peak season.” Luckily, farmers markets can be found all over Los Cabos from November-June and some stand-outs include the weekly markets at The Shoppes at Palmilla, Pedregal and El Huerto Farm to Table in Cabo San Lucas, and the Mercado Organico in San Jose del Cabo. When asked about other recommendations for home cooks, both chefs agreed that a high quality knife that maintains sharp edges and that you feel comfortable with is extremely important. Guillermo also said he couldn’t live without a versatile cast iron pan “that can go anywhere” from stovetop, to oven, to live fire - and a high speed blender that can whip up everything from purées to margaritas. Leslie recommends a thick-based sauté pan or pot that can handle heat, like her favorite from All Clad, as a very
versatile piece of kitchen equipment. She would also be lost without a good microblading zester and a high quality food processor. She uses hers for everything, including her popular cakes and ice creams at Flora Farms. Both chefs also agreed that it’s worth it to invest in a few everyday kitchen tools of superior quality because they see so much use and will still stand the test of time.

DESTINATIONS
Cabo San Lucas
This tourist-friendly town, also known locally as just “Cabo,” is located on the tip of the Baja California peninsula and is full of entertainment for every age and style. The Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean meet at Land’s End, where you can observe the beautiful rock formations and the famous Cabo Arch. In Cabo San Lucas, you can find Medano Beach (the liveliest beach in the Los Cabos area), an impressive marina and countless restaurants and bars that keep the town alive day and night.
The East Cape
Loreto
Located on the east coast of Mexico’s Baja Peninsula. Loreto is a historic town catering mostly to American travelers, with daily flights from California to Loreto International Airport. Loreto is a hidden jewel on the Baja Peninsula with peaceful charm and dazzling landscapes. With plenty of unique things to do such as golf at the remarkable TPC Danzante Bay, a multitheme 18-hole golf course that runs over and through valleys, arroyos, dunes and foothills at the Islands of Loreto, Spa at Villa del Palmar Beach Resort & Spa, a full-service destination resort community, fishing or an adventure tour, is without a doubt a pleasure for those who make the trip.
If you look at the map of Baja Sur, you can see that the highways and towns form a loop. There are ongoing road improvements and new highway construction projects, so getting from one place to another will only get easier. The new, efficient highway from Cabo San Lucas to Todos Santos makes the drive only 45 minutes long.
People often call it “old Cabo” because of its pristine beaches and small fishing towns such as Buena Vista and Los Barriles. The East Cape begins just east of San José and extends about 100 miles up the Sea of Cortez coast. Sixty miles outside of San José is the Cabo Pulmo National Marine Park, a nationally protected coral reef that offers outstanding snorkeling and scuba diving. Very popular for fishing and surfing, the East Cape also attracts kite surfers, campers, and those who just want to get away from it all.
San José del Cabo
Walking around downtown San José will allow you to experience a traditional Mexican town. You will find yourself surrounded by colorful buildings and quaint cobblestone streets that lead to the town’s picturesque zócalo (main plaza). Over the years, San José has become an artistic and cultural center with numerous fine art galleries in its downtown art district, as well as world-class restaurants. San José also has a beautiful beach where you can take a horseback ride to explore the estuary that is home to many different bird species.
The Corridor
The corridor is the 40 KM highway that connects Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo (about a 25 minute drive). Along this road you can find various hotels, luxury oceanfront homes, championship golf courses and beautiful views. Have your camera ready and make a roadside stop at the Costa Azul viewpoint for photo opportunities and a refreshing coco frío (cold coconut water). 24

Todos Santos
Located on the Pacific Ocean side of the peninsula, Todos Santos is an oasis where artists and surfers flock to enjoy the culture and excellent surf. Home to the famous Hotel California, this charming town offers great restaurants and a cooler climate than Cabo San Lucas and San José due to the breezes coming from the Pacific Ocean.
