DISCOVER THE FARM
It took us more than 20 years to create this unique organic farm. We invite you to explore our organic crops and the methods of regenerative and biodynamic agriculture that we apply, to imagine in the old factory how our ancestors produced extra virgin olive oil, to discover in our seed bank how we protect seeds of hundreds of years and also how our raw materials get from the farm to the table and then from the table to the farm to become organic fertiliser or animal feed.
EXCLUSIVE CULINARY LESSON
We will collect together all the pure raw materials that we will use in the cooking lesson, discussing the value of the seasonal cultivation we apply on our farm. Then, the housewives of the area, together with our specialized chef, will guide you to authentic traditional recipes and cooking practices, to be introduced step by step to the Cretan cuisine and the secrets of the healthiest diet in the world.
