Sustainable Living and Hands-On Learning
Finca 588 Tropical Homestead
Learn new skills to shape your world
Permaculture is more than growing plants. Permaculture gives us a framework with which we can look at the world differently. At Finca588, we are passionate about living well. For us, that means producing healthy and delicious foods, bettering our soils and earth, and teaching others how to bring self-reliant living into their world.
And we like to have a little fun along the way.
Finca 588 is a sustainable working farm, homestead, and living laboratory of regenerative agriculture principles. We have restored degraded cattle pasture into a thriving and productive tropical food forest, a biodiverse ecosystem which sustains us and our animals. We cure our farm raised meats, age our raw milk cheeses, and grow nutrient dense food in a regenerative way.
Jumpstart your journey with a workshop, class, or educational experience hosted by Finca588.
We offer hands-on experiential learning experiences that can be tailored to your group needs.
