    Hello Travellers

    I have always loved nature, adventures, traveling the world, meeting people, and experiencing different cultures and ideas. Fortunately, when I was growing up I got to travel and explore my country and a few other countries. While I was traveling I met an interesting family who was organic farmers. I got to live and work with them and got inspired to start an organic farm to spread quality growing and healthy food. Have a small farm and I am looking forward to turning it into an organic farm and encouraging other farms around us to do organic farming to make it self-sustaining. We are a family of four, my dad is a veterinary doctor and an entrepreneur, and runs a small business. Mom is a homemaker. I am really interested in hosting travelers and meeting new people from around the world, also getting help with my farm and my projects. We are an open-minded family and we love a good laugh and good company.

    Our Project
    We run a dairy farm as our main project and we are working towards making our dairy farm fully sustainable and working our way to making a better and happier place for our cows and animals on our farm.
    We are working towards supplying top-quality dairy products to our customers
