What we do

Simple conscious living in the natural ecosystem that sustain us seems to be the way. We are growing a tropical food forest, place to live and reconect with the earth and with us….land, watter and the plants. Various simple options and forms to live and learn, jobs, programs and activities for like minded people from around the world, rustic private cabins in glamping open style, a different way of tropical multispecies agroforestry, many options and ways for people that want to change the classic way of living and partly step out of the “system”. We offer of the grid living on the clean river beach for people of all ages and believes who want to experience, learn or help, visit or to stay. We offer CABINS for long RENTS too.
