Hidden within El Arca Jardín Botánico (The Ark Botanical Garden) in Costa Rica is a living library of sacred plants, medicinal herbs, and edible species used for food, healing, and ceremony. In this walking tour, we explore culturally significant plants, traditional remedies, and culinary herbs rooted in tropical landscapes and ancestral knowledge. This is a journey through plants that alter the mind, nourish the body, support wellness, and carry stories far older than us.

Tommy inspired me a ton in building my Food Forest here in Costa Rica. I also bought many of my starter trees at his nursery at The Ark. Thank you for highlighting his amazing work and accomplishments.
No, no pepper has been scientifically proven to stop an ongoing heart attack. A heart attack is a serious medical emergency that requires immediate professional medical treatment.
I hope he will pass on all his knowledge to someone that will keep this place alive. Wow what a gift, both of them Summer Raynes too. 👏👍🫶
