In the midst of the lush beauty of Mindanao, lies a hidden gem that captivates the senses and leaves a lasting impression on all who have the privilege to visit. A place that feels like a dream, where swimming with the fishes becomes an ethereal experience, and where the scent of pineapples fills the air like a sweet, tantalizing melody.

As a participant of the Soccsksargen Experience tour, we were treated to a day of wonder and awe as we journeyed to the DOLEFIL Clubhouse in Kalsangi. A place that truly lives up to its name, as it is home to the largest pineapple plantation in the entire country, sprawling across a staggering 12,000 hectares. The sight of this vast sea of pineapples is enough to make anyone feel like they've stepped into a paradise of golden fruits.

As we arrived at the Kalsangi Clubhouse, nestled amidst a family of pine trees that reminded us of the charming Baguio City, we were struck by the sheer grandeur and exclusivity of the place. This private haven is reserved for DOLEFIL employees and their esteemed guests, making us feel incredibly fortunate to have been granted access on this day.

Beyond the picturesque landscapes, what stole our hearts were the delectable snacks that awaited us inside. Platters of freshly sliced pineapples, glistening with succulent juices, beckoned us to indulge in their sweet and tangy flavors. Alongside this tropical delight, we savored palabok and clubhouse sandwiches, a culinary fusion that left our taste buds in a state of sheer delight.


As we relished the scrumptious treats, Gwynee Ebol of Dole Philippines graced us with her insights into the world of DoleFil. We discovered their dedication to supporting local farmers in planting pineapples, uplifting communities through tree-planting initiatives, and donating much-needed classroom chairs. Their heartwarming efforts even earned them an esteemed award, recognizing their commitment to social responsibility.

If you ever desire to embark on a journey to the Kalsangi Clubhouse, you must seek out a DoleFil regular employee to secure a coveted get pass, for this oasis is not open to just anyone. But once you have the pass in your hands, you can rest assured that the experience will be nothing short of extraordinary.
