Hidden Garden is a living monument to the healing powers of the rainforest.

It is home to over 200 plants that we have collected, as well as the forest wildlife that eat them. It is a sanctuary for humans who come here to reclaim their ancestral wellness traditions. We offer traditional wellness and educational experiences, including tours, wellness coaching, and ethnobotanical gatherings. 

This website contains a number of free wellness traditions resources – a blog, a Rainforest Secrets game and a number of digital libraries. Take a look and feel free to contact us with any questions!
