Kadadasi and the Backyard Forest
Overview
Discover Kadadasi and the Backyard Forest – A Journey into Craft, Community, and Conservation
Step into Kadadasi, where recycled paper is handmade, forests are grown—not cut—and sustainability thrives in rural Sri Lanka.
Your journey begins with a guided tour of our eco-friendly paper-making workshop. Watch as banana fiber and discarded paper are transformed into beautiful, meaningful products by skilled rural women.
Next, walk through our lush permaculture garden and hand-grown forest—cultivated over 40 years and home to rich biodiversity. Learn how we balance small-scale industry with nature, supporting local livelihoods while protecting the planet.
End your visit with refreshments and receive a special plantable souvenir—your own piece of Kadadasi to take home and grow.
Whether you’re a conscious traveler or nature lover, this is a truly inspiring experience.
