    Descripción

    We are a married couple in our 40’s who have traveled extensively around the world. We have lived and farmed in Hawaii and in Patagonia and are now starting our latest organic farm / sustainable living project here in Costa Rica. We are in the beginning phases, of fencing, planting, and dreaming up what is possible. We have a vanilla plantation, numerous fruit trees, coconuts, bananas etc... already going. The vision is to add greenhouses, vegetable gardens, aquaponics, micro greens, glamping facilities and a sustainable community space for all to enjoy.
    Being that we are still in the beginning steps, and it is just the two of us and one part time employee, we very much welcome any assistance and all of your creative ideas as this project unfolds. We have roughly 5 hectares (13 acres) of workable land and pristine jungle with rivers and waterfalls, and beautiful ocean views. Located just 1 mile above Punta Banco, in the tiny village of Vista del Mar. There is world class surfing at the beach below and immensely beautiful mountainous jungle and abundant wildlife all around!

    Costa Rica is such an immensely beautiful place, where gorgeous beaches, lush jungles, a plethora of unique wildlife and the true aspect of Pura Vida abound. We are located, on the Pacific Ocean, at the bottom of the country, close to the Panama border. This is such a beautiful and special part of Costa Rica, as it is still so natural and tucked away and not over developed or too touristy. As well as the magic of the vibrant jungle mountains butting up agains the Pacific Ocean, it is also a merging area of many different peoples. The farm is located right at the boundary line of the Indigenous Reserve, so you have the beautiful native people and their ancient culture existing next to the beautiful Ticos of Costa Rica. And with the world class surf and yoga centers, you have adventurous young travelers to meet from around the world. It is a beautiful melting pot of vibrant diversity.
    So whether you're interested in learning about farming and sustainability, ancient indigenous culture and crafts, extensive yoga teacher training from teachers around the world, learning how to surf, or learning a new language, there is ample opportunity right here in this little pocket of paradise.
