Forest Bathing at Jessie’s Tropical Fruit Farm

Go forest bathing among the colorful and deliciously-scented Jessie’s Tropical Fruit Farm in Naples.

Forest bathing is a nature-based wellness practice that includes a guided meditation and series of sensory explorations led by a Certified Forest Bathing Guide. The practice originated in the 1980s in Japan, where it is called shinrin-yoku, and now has decades of research showing it can improve physical and mental health.

During this program, discover the colors, textures and tastes from some of 1,500 plants and more than 70 varieties that include dragon fruit, passionfruit, banana, mango, soursop, lychee, star apple and Barbados cherry.

The farm is closed to the public during the forest bathing program, providing a private experience. Shop the farm’s fruit, jams, soaps and plants afterward.

The program fee of $45 includes a Jessie’s Tropical Fruit Farm tote bag and a lemongrass plant.
