What you can expect

Step beyond the beaches of Hopkins and journey into the Belizean countryside for an unforgettable hands-on Garifuna cassava farm and culinary adventure at the Sabal Cassava Farm.

Walk through the fields alongside local hosts and farmers as you learn how cassava is cultivated, harvested, and transformed into one of the most iconic staples of Garifuna cuisine: traditional cassava bread.

Enter the cassava fields and participate in harvesting fresh cassava. Learn about traditional farming methods and ancestral agricultural knowledge. Discover the cultural and historical importance of cassava to the Garifuna people.

Peel, grate, sift, and process cassava by hand. Learn how traditional cassava bread is made using ancestral techniques. Bake your own cassava bread over traditional fire hearths. Taste fresh cassava products and local flavours straight from the source.

Throughout the experience, local hosts share stories about Garifuna history, food traditions, sustainability, and the role cassava continues to play in preserving cultural identity and strengthening community livelihoods.

Depending on the day and season, enjoy additional cultural elements such as storytelling, herbal knowledge, fresh fruit tastings, or demonstrations of traditional tools used in cassava processing.
