Facilities are rustic, yet comfortable with most buildings elevated for maximum air circulation.  BFREE currently has 10 buildings on site that include a communal dining room and kitchen, three staff houses, director's residence, botany house, sawmill and workshop, the office, and a new science lab.

BFREE facilities are designed to be self-sustainable, with each building having its own solar panels, battery systems and its own rainwater catchement system and is also connected to our main well, which can supply water to the buildings in the dry season.  Since 2001, all buildings have been constructed with sustainably harvested wood, salvaged when Hurricane Iris hit Belize. There is a trail system with well maintained trails that network through BFREE property.
