Garin Farm: A journey to escape reality
December 15, 2017
Green vegetable tunnel
Along your journey, you will get to pass by some diorama based from the stories in the bible. Here you can choose whether you will pray, meditate or to take pictures.
When on the top, you can now witness the holistic scenery of the place. It is best appreciated when you visit the place personally. Before seeing the most awaited scene, you have to pass through the dark meditation tunnel so you have to observe silence upon entering this place.
After the long journey, I went to their canteen and sipped a can of soft drinks as I became thirsty climbing the stairs back and forth.
My effort was so worth it and I was so satisfied with the view that I have witnessed. One more thing, if you get to visit there until 4pm, you can also see how they feed the animals. They call groups of animals one by one and feed them accordingly.
There's a lot more of this experience when you visit GarinFarm. It was a great place to meditate, pray and reminisce about the story in the bible and His sufferings for us.
Here's how to get there:
- From Iloilo City, you can take a bus or jeepney bound for San Joaquin. Terminals can be found at Molo teminal, Mohon terminal or Super. Fare is about 60 pesos and travel time is less than 2 hours.
- You can also take a van going to San Joaquin. The fare is 100 pesos and travel time is also less than 2 hours.
- Just tell the driver or conductor (the one collecting the fare) to drop you off to San Joaquin market.
- From the highway, take a tricycle going to Garin Farm. Fare is 10 pesos each or you can pay 50 pesos for the one way trip.
