The Farm
“We cultivate the land with love and respect, she repays us with abundant and nutritious crops”
The Maritime Hills
The farm with its land stretches for about 27 Ha on the Maritime hills, so called for the proximity to the sea. The sea, being quite close, greatly influences the climate of our hills by giving us mild winters and pleasant and breezy summers.
The crops
on the farm as well.
Unfortunately, this concept of farming, over the years, has been replaced by modern and intensive agriculture.
The fruit of our labor
We mainly produce cereal grains and extra virgin olive oil along with legumes such as chickpeas and forage.
We also have a vegetable garden which gives many delicious gifts.
In 2017 we began cultivating lavender officinalis for essential oil production.
The Animals
You will find various animals on our farm such as cows, donkeys, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, geese, ducks, turkeys and our faithful shepherd dog, Argo.
We also have a diverse bee hives scattered over the entire area of the farm. Our bees collect delicious honey, which reflects the flavor of the surrounding nature.
