Davao City, Philippines
A regenerative sanctuary at the foot of Mount Tipolog — growing food, restoring soil, and building the kind of community that feeds more than just the body.
Our Story
Flow Forest Farm sits on five L-shaped hectares that Arnold Vandenbroeck and Norma Javellana began tending in the 1990s. What started as a family land has become one of Mindanao's quiet living experiments in regenerative agriculture and intentional community.
The farm carries the spirit of SIGE — Sustaining Intergenerational Equity — a name that says exactly what the land is for: not just today's harvest but the fertility of the next generation.
Today, Maya Flaminda Vandenbroeck stewards the land alongside farm supervisor Martin Dulang. 454 coconut trees, 168 mangosteen trees, seven banana varieties, and 32 documented bird species share the hillside with every volunteer who arrives with willing hands.
What We Offer
Whether you're here to buy, to visit, or to stay a while — there's a place for you at Flow Forest Farm.
How We Work
Flow Forest Farm is built on the belief that healing land and healing people are the same work. Our four pillars guide everything — from how we grow food to how we welcome guests.
Between people, between hands and soil, between the farm and the wider community it feeds.
No performance. Volunteers come as they are. The farm asks only for honesty, presence, and a willingness to learn.
Decisions on the farm — what to grow, how to build, who to invite — flow from awareness, not just efficiency.
People leave with more than they brought. Skills, perspective, and a changed relationship with food and place.
From the Farm
Seven product categories span the full cycle of the farm — from the soil inputs that feed the land to the wellness goods made from what it grows.
