The lodge and its team-members give back by volunteering in the community, and through
a variety of in-kind and financial donations to projects serving children. Your stay makes all of

Tending to the care of community, being at one with the environment, and sleeping soundly
in peace and quiet: this is what makes life on the farm so appealing.

So there you have it! Co-exist with baboons one day, milk an Ankole cow the next. Hike through

of your very own well-appointed and private accommodations.

All the boxes are ticked at these lodges. I highly recommend that you soon plan your own
sweet trip. From forest to farm.
