    Agroforestry & Airport Retreat Startup – Learn Sustainable Gardening and Hospitality

    We are a privately owned agroforestry and hospitality startup located near Sri Lanka’s international airport. Our project combines traditional Kandyan forest garden principles with a small but growing personalized airport stopover business. We offer slow life garden retreat experiences and nature education for travelers who wish to experience authentic rural Sri Lanka.

    This is a for-profit business model. We believe sustainability and profitability must go together in order to create long-term impact. Our aim is to demonstrate that ecological gardening and hospitality can be financially viable while protecting nature.

    We are not an NGO or a charity project. It is a structured business environment where we work toward measurable outcomes while maintaining a peaceful and nature-connected lifestyle.

    In our garden we maintain a strict no-plastic policy because recycling facilities are limited in this rural area. Therefore Workawayers are expected to avoid bringing or using single-use plastics or polythene within the garden.

    Part of our business philosophy is differentiation through quality. We focus on customer experience, ecological balance, healing environments, and transformation while creating opportunities for rural communities. Hygiene, respect, neat and tidy surroundings, aesthetics, and creativity are important values in our hospitality approach. Workawayers who appreciate and respect this culture will benefit the most from the experience.

    Our meals may include eggs, fish, or chicken. We are not a vegan property, but dietary preferences can be discussed in advance.

    We welcome practical, solution-oriented individuals who respect both sustainability and entrepreneurship.

    We love to connect with workawayers who are interested in gardening related tasks, like maintaining garden beds, weed control, watering the plants, grooming vanilla wines, pepper picking, hedge sheering, helping housekeeping tasks,... etc, Since we are transforming to a healing resort based on garden retreat, volunteers could help us with healing, making herbs, housekeeping and other day today acitivities in the process. If you are good at working on internet platforms, data analysis , would also be immensely helpful as we want to offer healing as a service from the garden - globally. We also need help for enhancing garden aesthetics , woodworking, painting, dog training, music, yoga, movie making, story recording, songwriting, or English lessons for our staff or any other specific skills are valued.
