What to expect

The cooking. The fire in the wood-burning oven is kindled, setting the stage for kneading dough. A stroll around Lefkada Micro Farm follows, where you'll harvest vegetables and herbs for lunch while learning about organic farming methods. You'll become acquainted with the farm's trees, vegetables, herbs, and animals. Upon returning to the kitchen, the oven is hot and ready to bake loaves of bread.

Next, you'll prepare the vegetables for Briam (roasted mixed vegetables) and place them in the oven. As the main dish cooks, a Greek salad and Tzatziki are prepared using the freshest vegetables, goat cheese, and traditional sheep yoghurt from local dairies. Finally, everyone gathers in the open-air kitchen to savour the fruits of their labour.

This experience offers a refreshing break from the azure beauty of the island, inviting you to embrace the verdant tranquillity of the Greek countryside away from tourist-laden beaches. It's an opportunity to interact with fellow visitors and collaboratively create a nutritious and delectable lunch. Harvest high-quality organic vegetables and learn how to prepare beloved Greek dishes. Fulfil your dream of becoming a Greek Farm-to-Table Chef and take these skills and recipes back home with you.
