The Jungle Farm Restaurant 

Using seasonal produce, copal tree  seek to prepare foods that are culturally significant, fresh, flavorful and satisfying. At the Jungle Farm Restaurant, they make everything in house using ingredients grown by their farm team or locally sourced from nearby farmers.

 

They occasionally forage the rainforest for wild foods such as heart of cohune palm, wild herbs and flavorful leaves and fruits. We invite you to complete your meal with our house roasted coffee, farm raised “bean to bar” chocolate and a sampling of local rums.

The Farm

Copal Tree Lodge is dedicated to developing lasting economic stability in Southern Belize through agriculture. Sugar Cane, Cacao and Coffee are being grown organically by local people who are paid fair wages, and treated with fairness and respect.

They produce on-site more than 70% of the food  served to  Lodge guests.

 

With extensive gardens, tropical fruit trees, and livestock,  day-to-day food production is a hive of activity year round. Join  farm staff for a visit to the egg mobile. Be entertained by their feasting, playful lambs. Visit the Cocktail Garden where they grow limes, coconut and pitaya.  Explore the Flavour Garden to see, taste and smell the diverse range of tropical flavours that can be custom blended during a one day chocolate course.
