Every day here at eXtreme Cabarete is a fun day. There is so much going on and so much to do, that it’s hard not to have fun.

Now that the busy winter season is over, the team here has a moment to relax and chill. Here’s some photos and comments from a day in the life here on the sunny beaches of kite beach, Cabarete

It starts with Papo and the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu team, as Papo has to drain on of his student’s ears, which is a common thing to do for Jiu Jitsu – it’s called Cauliflower ears . A little gross, but they seem not to mind too much.

Then we have a nice chat with Aaron, the current gardener from Taino Farms, our organic farm up in Los Brazos. We try to follow the permaculture principals for sustainable agriculture practices, and we practice what we preach, in our effort to be sustainable

It’s a sunny day, so after hanging out with Aaron for a bit, we all decide to head up to Taino Farms. Along the way we wave to the taxi and motoconcho drivers parked right out front of the Kite Beach Hotel.

Once up at the organic farm, we start to see what is coming together. Some of the hot peppers for our friends at Gorditos Mexican are starting to come online

The farmers have been busy building another raised bed for the organic produce, all under the bamboo. They are using local garbage recycled as part of the fencing

It’s always nice to eat organic. The nutrients are a multiple of regular produce. Look how green and healthy it looks! (and tastes!)

We end up down by the river, to escape the heat here in Cabarete. Nothing like a swim in the Yasica river to help us all cool off. Taino Farms has a great tube adventure if you’re up for some nature and relaxing .

And to our builder Scott, thanks for you help building cabins up at the farm!
