Our Story
Our journey begins with a simple fascination - a fascination with the boundless potential of the humble Coconut Flower. At Lionheart Farms, this fascination has grown into a visionary tale that we're excited to share with you.
Our story revolves around the incredible Coconut Flower, a source of raw energy and vital nutrients. From this unassuming blossom, we've crafted an entire universe of extraordinary products, ranging from traditional coconut sugar to delightful syrup (or nectar, as some prefer to call it) and savory coconut amino seasoning. The Coconut Flower is our muse, and its limitless possibilities are what inspire us daily.
In 2016, our journey took root in the fertile soil of Rizal, Palawan, nestled at the foot of the majestic Mount Mantalingahan, overlooking the breathtaking West Philippine Sea. It was here that we planted our first coconut palms, setting in motion our dream to unite all aspects of our process, from soil to finished products, in the most sustainable way possible.
Our Three Principles
Understanding the Underlying Fundamentals of Lionheart Farms
Healthy
Knowing our products are pure from nature with only natural organic inputs to the soil. Harvested with love using ancient techniques and carefully processed without any additives and to preserve the integrity of the raw sap from nature in the most modern facility.
Sustainable
In all aspects from our agricultural practices working towards net positive contribution to biodiversity to working in partnership with the local community of the Indigenous Peoples of Palawan, observing their cultural diversity and dialogue based on their tribal principles to resolve conflicts or for planning our contributions to their community development.
Traceable
Knowing we managed every step in the life of the product working to the highest standards of Organic certification in the farm and factory compliant with all certifications for Good Manufacturing Practices with BRC, SMETA, Halaal and Kosher.
Our Three Steps
Farming
In the nursery we cultivate our own coconut palms from seednut to seedling, ensuring they get the best possible start to life. Then after planting them in the farm, we nurture them to a mature and harvestable state with our in-house produced bio-organic fertilisers.
Harvesting
With photosynthesis helping us convert sunlight into chemical energy, we harvest it in the form of sap directly from the coconut palms flower. Using heritage tapping techniques practiced throughout South-East Asia, we are able to organically extract pure coconut flower sap of the highest quality and full of natural sugar.
Processing
Coconut flower sap is a very versatile raw material and can be processed into a wide range of products. At our processing facility located next to the farm we produce coconut aminos, sugar, syrup and vinegar. But because of the span of flavors, colors and textures coconut flower sap possesses we are not limited to these products. Alcohols, beverages and even personal care products are also possible.

Our People
How it feels working with us?
It is the people which makes this noble work possible. We all embrace the vision and mission of Lionheart.
Nikki
Quality Assurance Officer
Lionheart continuously gives me an extraordinary opportunity, from the moment I started up to now it never seizes to teach me various lessons. It helps me to develop a sense of responsibility, cooperate with other employees for the best, and the ability to handle the assigned tasks. I am grateful with my Manager and QA Team for the trust and for pushing me to become the person that I am right now.
Chris
IT Officer
Being an IT Officer, it’s a challenge for me to fix problems like Internet Connection and Computer Troubleshooting, but because of my co-employees they believed in my skill and talent I can easily think of a solution to fix the problems. I can do impossible things with them. I am so happy to be part of the LIONHEART Family. I just dreamt to stay here in the long run and be a part of the success of LIONHEART. I am always here to support the mission and vision of the company to help the Rizalian communities.
Lesian
Company Nurse
In Lionheart Farms, I get to pursue my passion with a very dynamic work environment. Prior becoming the LH Nurse, I used to go on an 8-hour duty in just one location, but now it was so interactive, I meet people from different walks of life, it is so fulfilling to care for the Indigenous colleagues of the company. I can imagine working at the mountains in the morning then reporting to the Hub in the afternoon. Considering how remote our location is versus my previous job... What great facilities we have here! I love working with LH!
Regina
Lead Cashier
This opportunity given by Lionheart to me and the rest of the Indigenous People Community is one in a million and is really worth all the hard work. Having a key role as the company's Lead Cashier, I am more than proud that we truly belong in this feat of uplifting the IPs of South Palawan. Currently, I am working with my sister under the same department which makes this work more fun.
Conrad
Security Manager
I am more than happy working with Lionheart. I have been with the company for years now. Lionheart provided job opportunities to the people of the 11 barangays of Rizal Municipality inspite of the pandemic this year. No need of going to other provinces to find work.
