Description
We're (nature expert and florist), David (dedicated farmer and guide), Anna (talented chef of traditional meals), and Rainer (overseer from Germany/currently on Site). Together, we guardian a 12-hectare small farm in peaceful Chumani, just outside Kilifi on Kenya's coast. Our goal: Build a sustainable paradise using permaculture principles, eco-friendly construction, and community harmony. Surrounded by ancient baobab trees, humming colibris, and rare wildlife (spot elephants in the nearby forest!), we're close to beaches (4km), Sokoke Forest, Gedi ruins (UNESCO site), Mida Creek, and Watamu Marine Park for snorkeling/diving. We're a new project, so things are evolving—your ideas and skills can help shape us!
