Our Mission
- Create a place of life and healing for anyone who wants another ideal of life than the proposed by the system.
- Protect nature and the century-old trees that are on this unique piece of land near Lagos from fire and take care of them
Our History
Once upon a time, a man with an idea of living in a community sit down a tree for meditation.
But he would never imagine what happened....
The tree talk with him and ask him to protect the landfrom fire.
Without money and opportunities, this old man got confused,
but accept the mission.
The tree promise him to organize everything for him...
and that exactly happened
As a miracle, things work on...
And today, 6 years later...
