Jolit's the farm is home, family, culture... It's a unique experience where you truly live the daily life of the local people, where you get to know them, have your own time, and learn a lot from the great teacher Jomer, who is a wonderful human being, as is his entire family.

It was really great experience for 2 weeks. I had no idea about the farm like agriculture and sustainability, but Mr. Jomer taught me everything. Bee keeping, harvesting, farming, mealworm casts, organic fertilizer from the farm. Everything is circling in this farm! How amazing! Living in the nature, with lovely family, dogs and cats, was really good for healing time. I hope to Mr.Jomer's dream will be come true soon!

Jomer & Lita were lovely hosts and made us feel part of their family. The food was incredible and there was loads of it! The farm was really interesting and we learnt alot about permaculture & organic farming that we can take back home with us to grow more vegetables organically! The area was lovely and we met alot of nice locals. Would definitely go back and visit the farm to see what it's like in the future!

Jomer and Lita were really welcoming and extremely generous. We loved that we ate organic food that came directly from the farm! We really enjoyed getting involved and helping, doing activities such as painting, picking crops, and preparing food. It was also nice to learn more about filipino culture, we really loved doing Karaoke with them too! We learnt a lot about sustainability and organic farming, and Jomer took us to visit another farm to learn more about vermicomposting. He even sorted out bike hire so we could explore more of the island on our day off.

I loved my stay at jolits the farm! I felt so welcomed there. Everyone was so nice so it felt like a second home. On the weekend Jomer showed me a lot of beautiful places around the farm like the chocolate hills and the tarsier sanctuary. Everything was perfect and the food was amazing! I will miss this place and the people there a lot and i hope i can visit the farm again in the future.
