What To Bring

Comfortable Walking Shoes: Sturdy sneakers or hiking shoes are a must for navigating uneven, red-dirt agricultural paths and hillside terrain. Sun Protection: Pack reef-safe sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, and sunglasses to stay protected during the outdoor farm walk. Reusable Water Bottle: Bring water to stay hydrated between fruit tastings and spring visits. Bug Spray: Insect repellent is recommended for comfort while exploring forested and rural pathways. Cash: Useful for, picking up unique local souvenirs, or stopping at roadside spots like Middle Quarters for famous peppered shrimp on your return trip.
Additional Essential Information for Travelers Booking Policy for Solo Travelers: If you are traveling alone, do not book directly without sending an inquiry first. The tour requires a minimum 2-person reservation, and solo bookings may be canceled or delayed unless paired with other guests or cleared by the host. Meeting Location: The standard meeting point for the excursion is at the Fairview Shopping Center in Montego Bay (St. James Parish), where transportation can be coordinated or arranged. Activity Level: The hike is rated as a moderate activity level and beginner skill level, meaning you should be comfortable walking on uneven dirt and hillside terrain for a portion of the 2-hour experience. Weather & Farm Conditions: Portions of the farm and landscape reflect recovery efforts following recent storms, offering an educational look at the resilience of local agriculture, natural spring water, and heritage crops like pineapples and yams. Meeting Location: Fairview Shopping Center, located along Alice Eldemire Drive in Montego Bay, St. James Parish. From Montego Bay Center / Sangster International Airport: Head west out of the central business or resort district onto the A1 main thoroughfare. Follow the A1 highway west toward the Fairview area (passing near the Freeport/Bogue industrial and commercial zones). Turn in at the Fairview Shopping Center, where your host, Tomalo, or your coordinated private driver will meet you to transport your group down to the farm in St. Elizabeth. Travel Note to the Farm (Pisgah, St. Elizabeth) From Montego Bay, the drive south into the interior hills of St. Elizabeth takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes. The route typically cuts inland through scenic, winding rural country roads (past regions like Anchovy and Montpelier heading toward the Cockpit Country borders and Pisgah). Because rural interior roads can be steep, narrow, and unpaved in sections, travelers are strongly encouraged to use the organized host pickup or hire a local driver rather than navigating the interior mountain tracks in a standard rental car.
