Imagine a place where paradise unfolds before you. Lush greenery cascades down emerald slopes, vibrant flowers paint the landscape, and the air hums with the melody of hummingbirds. This isn’t just a dream; it’s the reality sculpted by the visionary hands of Stacy Moses, the mastermind behind Jungle Bay Dominica’s breathtaking edible gardens.
Forget manicured lawns and imported blooms. Stacy, a Black woman with a passion for nature and community, has woven something far more magical. Since 2021, she’s been transforming Jungle Bay into an “edible resort,” a haven where nature’s bounty nourishes not just the body, but the soul.
Picture this:
- Healing Hands: Locally-grown herbs and flowers find their way into rejuvenating spa treatments, infusing each massage with the island’s unique essence.
- Taste of Paradise: Dishes at the resort’s restaurants burst with flavor, thanks to Stacy’s meticulous selection of homegrown ingredients, each bursting with freshness and local love.
- A Feast for the Senses: Guests are invited to wander through the vibrant gardens, plucking plump berries and fragrant herbs, a true immersion in Dominica’s edible paradise.
Stacy’s vision extends beyond aesthetics. She empowers local farmers, ensuring they have a consistent market for their crops. The gardens become a vibrant hub, connecting guests with the island’s rich agricultural heritage and fostering a sense of community.
This isn’t just a garden; it’s a movement. Stacy’s story is a testament to the power of Black brilliance, environmental consciousness, and community spirit. It’s an invitation to step into a world where luxury meets sustainability, and where nature offers not just beauty, but nourishment for body and soul.
