Last week in June, our skilled gardener Levi Moe was the star of San Ignacio Resort Hotel!
Levi was featured in a documentary that explores the lives of former students of the Belize Botanic Garden program funded by the European Union’s Belize Rural Development Project. The program provides individuals from all over Belize the chance to gain knowledge of the flora found in our Jewel and to “create employment in gardening and other plant related areas”.

Although a little bit nervous in the beginning (okay, a lot!), Levi was interviewed about how his life changed after taking this educational program. He explained that by successfully completing this course he was able to ultimately become part of the San Ignacio Resort Hotel’s team (YAY for us!). The documentary also features him getting hands-on and dirty at our Medicinal Trails and garden areas on a hot summer day.
Check out the behind-the-scenes!
