We love this guy, Rob Greenfield, and everything he does. Please follow him online to stay up-to-date on his unique form of activism. In 2014, Rob visited Farm of Life while traveling through Central America without any possessions and relying completely on other people's generosity. Naturally, we took him in for a bit. He wrote about us on this blog: The Farm of Life, Costa Rica: The Land of Health and Happiness.
“If ever I found a place with all the tools for happiness it came last week on the Farm of Life, Costa Rica. Here I found my happiness beaming like the sun… If you ask me where you can go to pave a new life into health and happiness, the Farm of Life is what I’ll answer.”
