The Living Food Forest
Where regenerative permaculture meets the bounty of Biblical agriculture. Wander trails laden with edible fruits, aromatic medicinal herbs, and tranquil canopy shade.
A Self-Sustaining Ecosystem of Abundance
Unlike industrial farms, our Deep Creek Food Forest mimics a mature natural forest canopy. Seven layers of vegetation—from tall canopy palms down to root crops and groundcovers—thrive synergistically in the nutrient-rich Bahamian soil.
As our glamping guest, you are welcome to pick fresh fruit directly along the pathways, participate in guided foraging workshops, or enjoy chef-prepared meals cooked with the daily harvest.

Courses in the Food Forest
We offer hands-on courses in Permaculture, Biblical Farming, and Animal Husbandry — taught right inside our living food forest. All courses are offered through our affiliate Blackwood University, the first private university in South Andros.
Permaculture Design
Learn the seven-layer food forest model, regenerative soil building, rainwater cycling, and closed-loop composting practiced daily across our Deep Creek grounds.
- Forest canopy layering & guild planting
- No-dig, no-pesticide regenerative methods
- Closed-loop composting & carbon sequestration
Biblical Farming
Study the agricultural laws of Scripture — Sabbath rest for the land, gleaning for the poor, and stewardship of Creation — applied to modern tropical agroforestry.
- Sabbath-year land rest & soil renewal
- Gleaning ethics & community food access
- Hebraic stewardship of Creation
Animal Husbandry
Hands-on care of livestock in a humane, regenerative system: pasture rotation, natural health, and the integration of animals into the food forest ecosystem.
- Rotational grazing & pasture health
- Humane, natural animal care
- Integrating livestock into the food forest
