Birds Eye

See For Yourself
Visitors are now welcome to wander, participate and experience this beautiful destination for themselves. Activities including site tours, presentations and visitor participation are up and ready to go; Our site Officers si Camillo, Dudz and Jaymar are on site daily from 8.00am - 5.00pm. 

Learn about organic agriculture, sustainable  construction, garden design or just come to hear the many incredible stories we gathered while creating this space.



 From the heights of our central trellis (which will one day shade our visitors); our gifted craftsman and site officer Camilo Martinez gives us an insight into a birds eye perspective of our organic garden.




Easier to highlight from above; the circular site design of the inner raised beds is set to entice visitors to continue to explore the trifector of information-art and experimental plant design displayed within each of the six inner raised beds.




Hidden beneath our stone pathways and coconut shell mulch, tonnes of soil has been managed to ensure this site will remain drained, healthy and growing throughout the rainy period. 

Installations of information and signage are soon to be establish within the inner raised beds. Displaying ideas and concepts such as hydroponic growing systems utilizing recycled drum kits and companion planting through use of ex farm equipment .





The lower set growing space, situated on the outer portion of the garden will perform the task of producing a profitable yield through both tried and experimental organic agriculture techniques. Eggplant and tomatoes are already flourishing in the sheltered far corner beds, meanwhile the corn and pea plants situated in the front beds are continuing to battle against the strong Philippine winter winds.
