• Natural sounds of monkeys, parrots, goats, and roosters at dawn
• Opportunities to pick fresh snacks from trees on the farm, either to eat immediately or dry for later
• Sustainable living powered entirely by renewable solar and wind energy

Sustainability and Farm Practices

The farm practices eco-friendly methods including:

• Recycling and reusing plastics, paper, and food scraps, which are fed to chickens, goats (fruits), or composted in a worm bin to create organic fertilizer
• Avoiding pesticides by using natural pest control sprays made from garlic, onion, and chili peppers; guests will be informed before spraying to avoid exposure

Additional Notes

• Power is primarily solar, with an electric backup system. Guests should be mindful of energy consumption.
• Occasional short power outages may occur due to the island’s windy conditions and developing infrastructure.
• Animal lovers are encouraged to give affection to the resident dogs and cats, including Abrazo, a large orange cat who enjoys being picked up.
