Caribbean Agroforestry Institute

Caribbean Agroforestry Institute’s (CAI) mission is to research, demonstrate and educate in the fields of agroforestry and other ecological practices in support of people, pollinators and plants.

We are an agricultural educational nonprofit that offers technical courses to train students to design, implement and manage diverse agroforestry systems in the tropics and across the world.  Some of our programs equip students to transform their home gardens and farms into abundant food producing landscapes, while other programs are designed to train students to manage commercial farms for themselves or their employer.  

The Caribbean Agroforestry Institute (CAI), is based on a 35 acre off grid farm and homestead in Puertos, Puerto Rico.  Stephanie and Dan started CAI in 2020 after falling in love with the island of Puerto Rico.  They are passionate about off grid living, permaculture, biodynamics, clean water, regenerating soil, growing healthy food, cultivating healing herbs and sharing their passion with others.
