Blue Paradise Farms in Friendship District, Westmoreland, Jamaica is a start-up eco-resort-cum-training site.

The plan is to create a Permaculture demonstration residential smallholding - a tranquil environment, where teachers or facilitators can hold courses or events. Guests will be able to visit to relax, perhaps leaving behind the worries and cares of a fast-paced modern life. Guests could even use Blue Paradise Farms as a base from which to explore the beautiful island of Jamaica - a home away from home.

To kick off development of the site, we are running our first ever Full & Certified Permaculture Design Course! This course, led by International Permaculture Teacher Peter Cow, will start the transformation of 15 acres of a former sugarcane plantation into a Permaculture resort-cum-training site. It promises to be a fun-filled yet educational experience.

In addition to the full 72 hour PDC course:

  • We have our own professional Jamaican chef, Chef Kevin who caters for vegans, vegetarians and meat eaters
  • Apart from being a Permaculture tutor, Peter Cow is also a musician and will share his music with us.
  • We have a field trip to an idyllic eco-resort which has an organic farm, river, off-grid energy etc. etc.
  • There will also be a talent show


  • Please share this post with your friends and support Blue Paradise Farms as we strive to create a haven where persons of goodwill are welcome, create real opportunities for Jamaicans and share Permaculture knowledge.
