FARM TO TABLE/COCOA FARM
Our local farm was the foundation of the business, paving the way and
providing the capital for our two establishments; Mirage Resort and Charela
Inn. The farm, spanning 174 acres of hillside and flat terrain, supplies a
great deal of the produce used in our restaurant at Charela Inn.
Its proximity paired with the knowledge and care of our farm manager are
two key ingredients to the quality of the food we serve. Populated by
sheep, cattle, goats and chickens, the livestock keep us with a fresh supply
of meat and eggs. The success and quality of our meals can be attributed
to this as well.
Many crop call Cocoa Farms home, including calaloo, cabbage, lettuce,
okra, string beans, ackee, as well as a variety of fruit including delicious
mangoes when in season.
Hidden in the hills of Cocoa Farm, a beautiful freshwater spring emerges
from the rock to supply our plants and animals with that precious liquid
gold, void of chemicals or other water system impurities. Beautiful
landscapes, caressed by the gentle winds of Hanover, provide not only
fertile soil for growth, but peace and serenity nestled on the West Coast of
Jamaica.
