Firstly, we are eager to announce that managing director, Dinelle Henley, is the confirmed Global Islands Partner in the British Virgin Islands. GLISPA is a global platform that promotes action to build resilient and sustainable island communities. We are super excited to show our consistent works through actions as we’ve hosted several cleans up and replant sessions with volunteers throughout the Virgin Islands territory. Thankful to Kate Brown, Executive Director at GLISPA, for the recognition.

Sustainable Developmental Goals

As we strive forward to end hunger in the Virgin Islands territory, we are excited about planting food this raining season. Check out the small plot that we have been working on in Road Town, Tortola. There is coconut, corn, mango, okra, sweet potato, pumpkin and even sorrel.

Happy to be an example of indigenous peoples on the frontlines of Caribbean conservation.

As Father’s Day celebrations kick off this weekend, our volunteers will be taking this Sunday off from community service and returning back to the farm on Sunday, June 27th. Interested in becoming a Virgin Islands volunteer and would like to offer up three hours of your time? Please reach out directly to sign up for upcoming events. Stay tuned as our volunteers will be sailing off to Anegada soon! Thanks for reading, we appreciate your presence!

We can not thank our student volunteers enough for their hard work on the farm!
