Morning light breaking through the clouds over Caracara Ridge 🌿
These misty hills and layered forests are a daily gift.
This is what waking up surrounded by nature really looks like.

Rain-kissed and unbothered. 🌧️🦜
This Fiery-Billed Aracari parked on its favorite perch and let the forest give it a rinse—raindrops beading on feathers, that painted bill glowing like a sunrise. Little storm, big color. 💚

At Caracara Ridge, we believe community means family — and that includes our wild neighbors too. 💚🐒

Living here in Ojochal means sharing the ridge with incredible wildlife, like these tender moments between a mama capuchin and her baby.

Caracara Ridge isn’t just a place to live, it’s a community where people and nature grow together. 🌿✨

🌿💚 Proud to have supported an incredible conservation effort in Corcovado National Park!
For Corcovado’s 50th anniversary, more than 200 amazing volunteers came together to clean 27 km of remote beaches and jungle trails — protecting sea turtles, jaguars, tapirs, and countless species from harmful plastic waste 🐢🦜🌎
Caracara Ridge was honored to play a small part by donating the boat transfer that helped rescue the stranded quads used during the cleanup. From the jungle to the ocean — it was a wild logistical adventure, and we’re grateful to help in any way we can to protect this incredible region.
💡 Almost 3000 kilos of waste were removed — a huge win for Corcovado’s wildlife and coastline.
Happy 50th, Corcovado! We’re inspired by everyone who showed up to make a difference, and we’re committed to continuing our support for conservation and regeneration here in Costa Rica. 💚🌊

Parrot parade at Caracara Ridge! 🦜🌿 A whole flock of white-crowned parrots dropped into the cecropia trees near our trails—chattering, snacking, then lifting off in a green blur. Moments like this are why we keep wildlife corridors connected. 💚

🌿🦜 A duo of scarlet macaws touched down along the ridge to snack and chatter—moments like this are why we continue to plant native trees.

🌱 Rooted in Love at Caracara Ridge 🌱

Something truly special happened in our community orchard this season — the first fruit trees were planted, and they were planted by a remarkable group of women.

A group of widows came together to honor their lost loved ones through the healing act of planting. Each tree — papaya, citrus, mango, cacao, lychee, banana, and more — is not just nourishment for the land, but a living tribute of love, remembrance, and hope.

The day was filled with quiet strength, shared stories, laughter, and peaceful reflection. In planting these trees, these women also planted legacy, connection, and renewal — not only for themselves, but for the land and for future generations.

At Caracara Ridge, this is what regeneration truly means: restoring not only ecosystems, but hearts. 💚

To the women who took part in this sacred moment — thank you. Your strength is now rooted in this land, and your trees will stand as symbols of healing and new beginnings.

🍃 May every leaf bring peace, and every fruit tell a story. 🍃
