Cabaña Mujer Montuna

Our Cabaña Montuna, located in the same community in Puerto Rico that saw us grow, was built with our own hands with the mastery, love and guidance of my father, Don Manuel, and the community neighbors that would come enjoy Doña Aida’s (my mom) meal after a long day of carpentry. This was our carpentry school.

This is Partería Montuna's preventive health popular care center and popular education studio where community organization, healing and agriculture projects, a plants, flowers, and herbs nursery, and apothecary magic happens. A place where our Doña Niña’s (Abuela) blessings and all our communal ancestry knowledge meets. 

We extend this belief to our community practice because we also believe healing is a collective responsibility, and our collectiveness started in the mountains that hold our Cabaña. Your donations and services requests support 100% this cause and all projects that are held within.
