Dulzura:

---

Dulzura is a tiny, rural town in Southeast San Diego County, only 7 miles from Tecate, Mexico.

Here, hidden back in the folds of granite-studded hills, is  Madre Grande Monastery, home of The Paracelsian Order. In 2005, the monks of Madre Grande will celebrate 30 years of preserving and protecting its landscape of oaks and meadows and lakes and standing stones.

And here, only 40 minutes from downtown San Diego - but a world away - the Xaraproject and the Madre Grande Monastery will jointly produce Floralia - Xara Dulzura: 2005.
