Experience an Organic Caribbean Vacation - Kittitian Hills






If you're looking for a Caribbean vacation that caters to your organic lifestyle, then you clicked the right link.  Kittitian Hill is a pioneering community in the St. Kitts, West Indies with a passion for sustainable living. Enjoy beautiful boutique hotels, villas and the world's most edible golf course, set in 400 acres of organic tropical farmland.

“My vision is to bring together community and culture, mindful conservation of natural resources, along with rewarding activities and learning opportunities,” says founder Val Kempadoo. “This means we can offer an unforgettable experience, while bringing lasting, life-changing benefits to the local people and economy.”


KITTITIAN HILL – A NEW COMMUNITY WITH A NEW WAY OF THINKING

The story of Belle Mont Farm and Kittitian Hill begins with a single idea - creating a new destination unlike any existing ‘sustainable hotel’ that would bring people together to form a community that benefits both locals and visitors alike. Life is simple – no rush, no fuss, no hassle, just time and space to really relax and lose yourself in the energizing atmosphere of authenticity and engagement.

People come from across the globe to experience the real West Indies, in a place created from an entirely new way of thinking.  An important part of our the Kittitian Hill community includes a thriving village of artists and artisans that will open up new avenues of expression and foster the exchange of ideas through film, spoken and written word, music and visual arts festivals.

From farm-fresh cuisine and edible golf course to restorative spa journeys and long treks through the tropical rainforest, Belle Mont Farm invites you to experience an island escape, one where you can discover your best self while in harmony with the natural surroundings and the people who call this place home.

NEO Cafe serves up tasty meals using all organic products


"I feel a lot better, than when I came in," remarked the you youthful female client to New Earth Organic Enterprises manager, Samantha Antoine, as I entered the store.  "That cup of tea really helped..."  Not surprisingly, Samantha had known exactly what brew would work to help clear up the girl's sinus congestion, in this case it was a blend that included turmeric and ginger.  Perhaps it was the quaint, little Woodbrook house the store is located in, or the burnt orange walls as the backdrop for the burgundy-gold Christmas decor...not sure, but the interaction was so congenial as to seem like an aunt taking care of her niece.  But as I was soon to learn, that was simply Samantha's 'way' of dealing with clients as well as suppliers and employees.

New Earth Organics Enterprises Limited (NEO) has been around for about 10 years or so, having evolved from one of T&T's earliest ventures dedicated to Organics.  In fact, in its previous life it was known as Sun Eaters Organics a name synonymous with Organic cocoa production and one of the few people I know who's dedicated to the organic lifestyle and helping others on the path.  

Infuse Pure Therapy - Locally produced organic aromatherapy 
Bearded Trini - Locally made beard grooming
Remember to take your reusable bags and containers when heading to NEO to shop bulk grains such as my fave, mung beans, red lentils, brown rice and black rice which I promised myself to try next time.  You can get a wide range of local produce that are grown organically by farmers that have had a long relationship with Sun Eaters/ NEO.  Dasheen, eddoes, cassava, tomatoes, pumpkin, patchoi and callaloo, cucumbers and lettuce are just a few of the local produce available, while broccoli, carrots and apples are some of the imported produce.

Have you heard of Infuse Pure Therapy? and Bearded Trini products? NEO is the only bricks and mortar store where you can get products from these local manufacturers.  Otherwise you will have to catch them at one of the artisan markets.
