Jicaro Island Ecolodge is committed to the support of the community
of Las Isletas de Granada. For this reason we started a pig farm project on one
of the neighboring islands. The long-term goal of this project is to produce
bio-gas for the family living on the island, so that they will be able to use
this gas for cooking. Once this project has been carried out successfully it
will be introduced on other Isletas as well, so that ultimately the firewood
consumption in the community will gradually decrease. So far our sustainability team helps the family by bringing over the food leftovers from the restaurant
to feed the pigs, so that no extra costs for food will have to be spent.
