  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We may give opportunities to our guests how to maintain ecological life. Fully organic farming we're making from how to make organic fertilizers to how to obtain organic seeds and how to grow organic vegetables and fruits. In our 100% ecological farm we're producing our own electric and getting our own water from ground. We may give our guests genuine Turkish family culture with Turkish hospitability. Our farm's surrounding give additional opportunities like having trekking in forest, beekeeping activities, forest fruits picking (cranberry, blueberry), linden picking and mushroom picking. We have around 4 acres lavender garden and if our guests want to help us extracting lavender oil, they would have. And we're open for creating new opportunities with our guests' ideas to improve our farm's productivity. Also our farm is 20 mins far away from beach by driving.
