    Description

    Welcome to Our Regenerative Farm!

    Our farm is an evolving project focused on sustainable growing, biodiversity, and hands‑on experimentation. One of our main interests is a fig research project — exploring how cold‑hardy different varieties can be and how figs might expand the diversity of what’s grown and enjoyed in our region.

    Alongside figs, the farm includes a wide mix of fruit trees and perennials: aronia berries, apricots, plums, mirabelles, hardy persimmons, cherries, walnuts, strawberries, apples, hazelnut, gooseberries, raspberries, blackberries and more. We also cultivate healing and culinary herbs, including lavender, mint, and a rotating collection of aromatic plants. The land isn’t only plant‑based — we also raise pasture‑fed chickens as part of our regenerative approach.

    If you are into practices like organic farming ,regenerative farming, farm lifestyle, or just enjoy being surrounded by nature, sun kissed on pasture or being tampered by the soft breezes while enjoying the shade of large fruit trees, there's something for everyone with a green thumb to discover, learn and experience something valuable.

    We consider ourselves to be emancipated, forward thinking, progress embracing, disruptor driven, change facilitators. Always seeking the fine balance between the new and novel, along with the old and traditional, tried and tested framework.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    The surroundings of Streda nad Bodrogom offer plenty to explore during your free time, with a mix of nature, culture, and cross‑border adventures. You can visit Slovakia’s lowest geographical point in nearby Klin nad Bodrogom, stroll along the quiet Bodrog riverbanks, or wander through the Tokaj wine region, known for vineyard walks, cellar tastings, and the iconic Tokaj lookout tower. Just across the border, Sátoraljaújhely adds even more to do — from its charming historic center to the Zemplén Adventure Park, where you’ll find scenic chairlifts, forest trails, and one of Europe’s longest zip‑lines. History lovers can explore the Rákóczi Manor House in Borša or the ruins of Veľký Kamenec Castle. The whole region is ideal for slow exploration, cycling, photography, and discovering small local gems.
