Travel Experience
La Plantation manages 22,000 Kampot pepper posts on around 20 hectares. We grow the pepper in a traditional, organic way, in strict compliance with the PGI standards for Kampot pepper and use only organic fertilizers. We also grow other spices, like Long pepper, Turmeric and wild Chili and local fruits and vegetables.
Responsibility
La Plantation is not only a certified Kampot Pepper farm, it is a social and sustainable agritourism project. Located in a stunning rural environment, La Plantation offers you a unique place to discover and experience multiple activities.
Business Case
The social mission to benefit the families of La Plantation’s farmers, we also look after a Primary school next to the property. We help around a hundred pupils with school supplies and bicycles so that they can get to school. We have built a new access road for the school and also maintain the school buildings. We support financially the school exclusively for the benefits of the education of our kids. For the best students finishing Primary School, we finance their scholarship in a Private Secondary school in Kampot and daily manage transport and food accommodation for them.
