Rastafari Indigenous Village
Come visit a community that preserves traditions, protects the natural environment, and promotes the Rastafari way of life. Wake up to the sound of songbirds, river water and the chanting/drumming of traditional Rastafari music in the Tabernacle. Walk down a flower lined path to the garden and harvest some callaloo or cacao, and bring it up to our Ital kitchen that cooks the most delicious and authentic plant based food on the island. Pound your own cacao for chocolate tea; press your own cane juice; help make recipes that originated in Africa.
Learn how to make drums and soaps by hand, from artisans preserving traditional Rastafari techniques. Reason with the elders; learn the true history and heritage; wrap those lessons into your own dreams. Wade across the river; swim in the deeper spots; drink coconut "wata" morning, noon and night.
Rastafari Indigenous Village is a traditional community that welcomes guests interested in learning more about the nature-based Rastafari way of life. The Village offers day tours and five-day immersive retreats, by reservation only.
The number of guests we welcome is strictly limited to ensure an authentic and intimate cultural exchange.
