Carnival on Curacao is celebrated with an abundance of colourful parades filled with feathers, shiny clothes and happy faces.
Colours are everywhere, all the time! Let’s explore what the farm has to offer this carnival holiday on Curacao!
Holiday activities for kids on Curacao
These days are just crazy right? two days school, three days off, or worse (for parents) one day school, one day off, three days school…. the logistics! Really! But no complaining from this side as we are blessed to be living on a Caribbean island so diverse as Curacao is. So we embrace those ‘funny’ school weeks and take ourselves to the beach on a Tuesday morning, just ‘cos we can 😉 just to stretch that long weekend a little longer!
So with another crazy week ahead, we’re organising a few fun filled farm days too as the beach and the pool do get a bit much at times 😉

I’ve had a few Grow your Own projects on the go and we’ve learned from every project, as tending for an edible garden on Curacao isn’t as straight forward as it seems. Gardening in general is a challenge in this tropical climate, let alone growing and caring for vegetable plants.
So I’ve decided to take all the knowledge we’ve gathered over the last few months and start a 12 week Grow your Own programme.

The location might be a bit unusual as you wouldn’t expect a Farmers’ Market at a boulevard, but this is Curacao: most stuff you’d never expect happen here 🙂Read More »Farmers Market at the Boulevard Curacao
October 10th marks independence day for Curacao. For the last 5 years this island has been autonomous from the Dutch Kingdom, reason enough for a celebration!
(Read the Dutch version in Jamie Magazine.)
What a great way to explore the farm!
I’m so bored! I’ve got NOTHING to doooohooooo!!! Can I go on the i-Pad pleaeaeaease?!!?
A great way to explore is through a holiday plan.
Can you believe it? Mid-season holidays are almost upon us…. and we’re only 3 months away from Christmas (yay!)

Last Saturday I hosted the first ever Farm-to-Table workshops for kids on Curacao. On the grounds of Hofi Cas Cora we set up some picnic benches, a two plate stove and a whole lot of goodies to cook up a storm.
It’s been great to see the response on getting the kids involved in cooking.
