The owners of Earth Connection Portugal were busted by the police in November 2016 for possesion of 14 kilos of home grown cannabis, LSD tablets and cannabis oil.
They still offer retreats today but people should know that the owners are on police bail pending trial.
Because of that , people might sign up for a July retreat and then lose their money.
Their names are Daniela Markert and Johannes Maasland.

Um homem de 51 anos, detido em Oliveira do Hospital na posse de 14 quilos de 'cannabis', vai aguardar o julgamento em liberdade, disse hoje à agência Lusa uma fonte da GNR. O suspeito foi detido por elementos do Núcleo de Investigação Criminal da GNR da Lousã, na quinta-feira, na sua residência, em Travanca de Lagos, naquele concelho do distrito de Coimbra, e foi interrogado hoje no Tribunal Judicial de Oliveira do Hospital, adiantou o capitão Filipe Mendes, comandante do Destacamento Territorial da Lousã. A detenção verificou-se no âmbito de um inquérito por tráfico de drogas, que levou a uma busca domiciliária em que foram apreendidos 14 quilos de 'cannabis', "seca e pronta para consumo, cultivada na propriedade do suspeito", segundo uma nota do Comando Territorial de Coimbra da GNR. Foram ainda apreendidos 30 mililitros de óleo de 'cannabis', 34 selos de LSD, um telemóvel, um computador portátil e um 'tablet', bem com material utilizado na produção daquele óleo. O arguido vai aguardar os desenvolvimentos do processo em liberdade, com a obrigação de se apresentar duas vezes por semana no posto da GNR de Oliveira do Hospital.
