FROM FOREST TO TABLE: OUR FARM-TO-TOUR STORY
It all begins in the cloud forest.
High in the misty hills beside the La Amistad International Park, our organic farm is more than a place where food grows. It’s a quiet experiment — a way of living in rhythm with the land. A place where soil, water, and sun are honored, and every harvest tells a deeper story.
Rooted in Respect
Our mission is simple: to work with the forest, not against it.
Here in the cloud forest, life is layered and rich — a tangle of biodiversity and balance. It’s the perfect teacher. By observing its cycles and listening closely, we’ve learned how to farm with care, creating food systems that nourish without depleting. Everything we grow is organic, seasonal, and grown with intention.
Through permaculture, we’ve shaped our land to mimic the forest’s own design — resilient, self-sustaining, regenerative. Our farm is a living classroom where nature takes the lead.
Meet the Soul of the Kitchen
After your time at sea, this is where another kind of magic begins.
Our chef, Hazel, is the bridge between the forest and your plate. She’s not just a cook — she’s an artist, alchemist, and storyteller in her own right. With creativity and deep respect for ingredients, she transforms humble vegetables into something extraordinary.
She’s known for her plant-based creations, like her now-legendary smoked “salmon” made from carrots. But she’s also flexible — she can tailor dishes for vegetarians, vegans, or meat-eaters alike. What matters most is that it’s real food, from real land, prepared with joy.
Nothing Wasted, Everything Honored
What others might overlook — the crooked carrots, the forgotten greens, the odd-shaped roots — we celebrate.
Together with Haze, we embrace the full bounty of the land, especially what often gets left behind. Every dish becomes a tribute to diversity, resilience, and respect for where our food comes from.
More Than a Meal
When you sit down to eat with us — whether under a tree by the sea or with your feet in the sand — you’re not just tasting good food. You’re part of something circular. Something rooted in place.
Each plate is a small act of care. A celebration of nature’s abundance. And a reminder that eating can be a beautiful way to reconnect — with the land, with each other, and with ourselves.
The Forest Feeds Us. We Give Back.
This is what our farm-to-tour concept is all about:
A forest that grows your food.
A chef that brings it to life.
And you, right there in the middle, tasting the story from start to finish.
