Mission & Vision
El Purguero is owned and operated by Ayahuasquero Ronald Joe Wheelock, affectionally known as The Gringo Shaman of the Amazon. Don Ron has been serving the wordwide ayahuasca community for over 30 years. Ron's reputation as a powerful healer and expert brewer led him to buy land in Iquitos, Peru and build El Purguero. The camp opened in November 2012 and has since supported thousands of people on healing journeys.
