Like rice swaying in the gentle Sunda breeze, Sunda villagers gently move through the course of their days, often barefoot and always knowing. Centuries-old ancestral knowledge of the physical and ethereal landscape frames the day to day and informs Landcare, nourishment, healing, ritual, and ceremonial life. Surrounds include a stunning national park, tropical beaches, and mountainous jungles. Our role here is staying close to Earth and keeping Sunda tradition alive.

Our saung (home) grew out of the soil it was built on using materials from our garden and creek, and traditional building techniques. Family and neighbors did the build. We garden without chemicals, reject plastics, recycle, and compost. We eat locally, nourishing our bodies with aromatically tantalizing spiced Sunda cuisine, and heal ourselves from the plant life in our garden.
