The Farm

On our way back from visiting the missionaries in Mindoro, we spent the night at The Farm at San Benito in Batangas. This place was amazing! We intend to go back before we leave the Philippines.

This resort describes itself as a "center for holistic medicine, spirituality and living foods." This place is nestled way off in the forest. We arrived at night which was a bit scary. They serve only a vegan diet and the food was absolutely delicious. For breakfast, we had tofu scramble, lentil pancakes with coconut syrup, fresh fruit, muesli, fresh juices, almond milk (which Brayden loves), and several other yummy things. You'll see pictures from our lunch later in this post.

This resort also has a spa; we didn't try it so I don't have a review. They have several medical treatments including colonics, live blood analysis, detoxificatin, kidney cleansing, liver cleansing, and more. Again, I didn't partake in these services.

They also have several events during the day. Each day begins with meditation at 7 am which we didn't attend because it was a bit early for us. Dwayne participated in the rotational meridian exercise. We both attended the yoga class. There is a stretching class, tibetan exercise, breathing and walking exercise, and probably more. We were there for a brief time and didn't get to fully experience the resort. Hence the reason we will return. Here are the pictures.






We had a wonderful 5 course lunch. I know it doesn't look like much but we were very full.







We have reservations for next weekend...alone.

Looks good, make sure enjoy your alone time. The food looks good too. I was just sitting here thinking that it looked like the opening scene from Fantasy Island.

It sounds wonderful, almost like a little taste of heaven. See being a vegan is not so bad after all. There are many delicious foods you can eat. Health is apart of our wealth.

I am so glad you all went out of the country and that you blog because I get to see through you all some of the other wonderful things life has to offer. This world is so big, but yet so small.

Just as an aside. A colonic, kidney cleansing, liver cleansing etc are not medical treatments.
But the resort looks beautiful and like a nice health spa.
