About
Bird Pepper Farm
Trinidad Charlie and his wife Lina have been working the
farm for 24
years. It is an example of sustainable agriculture in
an area where
most people have forgotten about growing. Charlie has
brought
seeds and plants back from every place he has ever been.
The garden boasts the only teak trees on St. John.You
can also
find mango, papyaya, avocado, coffee, tangerine,orange,
grapefruit,
carombola, soursop, sugar apple, and banana trees on the
farm.
Of course Charlie also grows the peppers, papayas,
pumpkins and limes for his hot pepper sauces on the farm.
You will see many beautiful ornamental plants such as
lobster claw,
bird of paradise and many varieties of bromeliads which
you may have
previously only seen in pots. The many varieties of palms
include a
tall royal palm which is over 100 years old. The farm
is an amazing
experience for gardeners and plant lovers.
Garden tours and walking hikes can be arranged.
