Gaia is the Greek Goddess of Mother Earth. The representation of Gaia in Nicaragua is indigenous, feminine, nurturing, the spirit of nature found in its animals, trees, water and soil. At Gaia Forest, we believe in treading lightly on mother earth, and even lending a hand to help her regenerate. Our farming practices, business approach and products embody these traditions and principles.
Gaia Forest is a nearly 100 acre food forest in Diriamba, a sanctuary for animals and also an agroforestry landscape where coffee, vanilla, turmeric, ginger, and a host of fruits and nuts are grown. Everything is organic and Bird Friendly certified. With the farm as a platform, the café was founded in December 2019 to create a place where locals and tourists alike can learn about coffee in all its facets, including growing, processing and brewing methods. Wellness and ecological health are paramount to our product offer. Our menu embodies a plant-based diet, is vegetarian and mostly vegan, and prioritizes the inclusion of superfoods which serve as natural medicine for the body. Coconut, lime, turmeric, avocado, ginger, chia, maya nut (ojoche), natural vanilla, and organic fruits and vegetables are used to make healthy and delicious food items on the menu. Our farm fresh and ground spices are sold by the pound and are also mixed into our smoothies and cuisine options.
The farm continues to serve as a tour venue for learning, bird watching, forest walks, and overnight stays, to give city dwellers a respite from day to day life and a chance to connect with nature and the food they consume. Farm tours take place weekly. Interested parties can sign up at the café or call to register.
