This is a must do if you are in the Thessaloniki area - the highlight of my trip. You get to spend the day with a wonderful family, learn how to cook traditional greek foods with Maria (even making filo dough from scratch and rolling it out for cheese pie using the feta cheese that she makes herself there), and enjoy it all sitting outside in their beautiful farm called "Agni Farm" (with wine). It is all organic and fresh - we collected the eggs from their chickens, picked the vegetables and herbs from their garden, used their own milled flour, etc. - all delicious and fresh. And they have friendly sheep, chickens, a horse, cats and dogs roaming around. They even came and picked me up from the central area of Thessaloniki and dropped me off later again. A really fun day. (And I didn't realize it until later, but they also do olive oil soap making, greek bread making and other classes - I will do those next time.)
