When the Covid-19 pandemic struck last year, the WFH acronym or “work from home” became a byword for many office workers. But long before that, The Farm at San Benito has been advocating a different kind of WFH among workers stressed by the urban jungle’s daily grind—Wellness, Fitness and Healing.

And with the lingering health crisis which won’t go away anytime soon, this unique work mode has become more enticing. People look for ways to balance the need to work safely and improve their physical well-being by strengthening immune system and preserving mental health.
