Arenal Vida Campesina
Arenal Vida Campesina is
a project that defends the Costa Rican identity and seeks to maintain the best relationship between man and the environment, promoting practical philosophies that support and sustain this relationship.
Arenal Vida Campesina was created to show national and international tourists the culture and lifestyle of the Costa Rican farmer. At the same time, we preserve the customs and traditions that we inherited from our ancestors and that today are in danger of disappearing. Arenal Vida Campesina’s mission is to conserve culture while promoting sustainable development hand in hand with the community, in harmony with nature.
We offer educational day tours, where visitors interact while learning about responsible production in harmony with the environment, to foster a change of mentality in terms of comprehensive organic production through responsible and friendly practices with the environment. We cultivate the primary crops that have made the Costa Rican economy strong, including sugar cane, coffee, corn, cassava, cocoa, bananas and plantain bananas, along with non-traditional crops such as Chinese potatoes, yams, and more.
We have created a collection of experiences that represent a lifestyle that has existed here in Costa Rica since its inception. A lifestyle that focuses on quality, family and sustainability.
Our tours are about discovering new cultures and experiences. We have designed our tours with the objective of preserving our Costa Rican heritage in an ever-modernizing world. We are committed to the environment by assuming the challenge of minimizing the impact of greenhouse gases to the maximum; we plant native trees in danger of extinction to capture CO2 and thus mitigate global warming.
