How many developments in Costa Rica can claim a working, organic farm as one of their sustainable amenities? Well we can. Earlier this year, the Plaza Tierra Pacifica Welcome Center teamed up with Mi Tierra Organic Farm to create a marketplace for the chemical-free produce growing in our own backyard. This is an exciting development in the availability of quality, local food from both the organic farm within Tierra Pacifica and now from valley farmers as well. You can enjoy the freshest, seasonal tastes of Guanacaste while benefiting the local economy and environment.

Residents and visitors from Junquillal, Paraíso and even Los Pargos are taking advantage of the new market while supporting the local economy.

Mi Tierra Organic Farm uses 10 acres of Tierra Pacifica for sustainable agriculture and also sources locally grown fruits and vegetables from within our river valley. Enjoy Mi Tierra cucumbers, tomatoes, honey and eggs in your own kitchen or at one of many hotels in the area that support our “buy local” mantra. Each purchase you make supports the local farmers who work to bring this wonderful food nearly to our doorsteps and helps the restoration work done by Restoring Our Watershed, a strategic environmental project supported by Tierra Pacifica.

So whether you live here year round or just escape part time, buy local! Visit the Plaza Tierra Pacifica Welcome Center, right next door, for your fresh fruit and vegetable needs!
