Where can I find a directory of vegan communities in Ecuador?

I’m currently eating a mostly raw vegan diet, and I’m trying to transition to more of a fruitarian diet. But living in Northern Europe, the fruit options here are very limited. I’ve learned about a few vegan communities in Ecuador that I’d like to visit, but information about them is sparse.

I’m going on a trip to South America soon to visit Ecuador. I’ve tried googling for “vegan ecuador,” but most of the results are just about restaurants. I don’t care much for capitalism, eating at a restaurant, or “eco-tourism” (veganism isn’t a diet!). I am looking to learn about vegan projects in Ecuador, possibly joining a vegan intentional community there.

But first, to plan my trip, I’d like to get a list of all the vegan intentional communities in Ecuador.

Are there any lists of actual vegan communities in Ecuador?

    I can not answer your question regarding vegan communities, but I lived in Ecuador for many years and started a family there. The best thing I miss about Ecuador is something called chocho which is a pure protein bean that everyone snacks on. It is regionally specific to Ecuador since I never found them in Colombia.

    So during your trip, give it a try. You can mix with chulpi, which is dried salted maize.
