We work in family with the Grand Parents.
Our farm is located at 15 Km from home. We do Permaculture and Agroforestery (Vanilla, Tropical Flowers, Coffee, bananas….)
We have many different plants, herbs, vegetables, flowers and fruits growing in our garden - Here you can help yourself with fresh coconuts, mangoes, fruits, papayas... -

What else ...
Guadeloupe is a beautiful rainforest island in the Caribbean. It has many hikes and the highest volcano in the carribean sea, rivers, waterfalls, unique sulphur baths, and year round whale watching. Guadeloupe is surrounded with a lot of beautiful little islands like Marie-Galante, Les Saintes or La Desirade that you can easily visit.
Finding adventure and connecting with nature won’t be an issue. Not ideal for somebody who likes a lot of comforts! -
