MEET THE FOUNDER
Michelle Wedderburn is a community builder, nurturer, and visionary dedicated to creating spaces where people feel truly seen, supported, and valued. As the founder of Casa ELM and now Hacienda ELM, Michelle has spent years turning a calling into a reality — offering more than just homes, but sanctuaries for those in need of belonging and care.
Hacienda ELM is her latest labor of love: an all-inclusive, full-time community designed for adults 60+ who seek to age not just gracefully, but gratefully — surrounded by nature, walking trails, safety, and compassionate support. Located just 10 minutes from the heart of San Miguel de Allende, Hacienda ELM reflects Michelle’s unwavering commitment to creating environments where connection thrives and dignity is honored.
For Michelle, this work is personal. She believes aging should never mean isolation. Her mission is to ensure that those who have given so much in their lives now have a place where they are cared for, respected, and embraced — every single day.
We look forward to taking care of you or your loved one.
with love,
Michelle Wedderburn
