This experience is much more than a cooking class, it's an all-day immersion into the lives of a local Croatian family who has built an amazing, sustainable farm and winery. The day started with an entertaining, nearly off-road ride to the farm where we learned about vegetable harvesting and then proceeded to pick the vegetables for our meal. We then made our way to the open-air kitchen which overlooked the winery, where we drank their homemade wines, tasted homemade prosciutto and local cheeses, and together cooked a wonderful meal. The menu might've seemed simple but showcased the cultural tradition of coming together over food and included lamb grilled over an open flame, homemade bread, basil pesto, and many amazing vegetable sides. Andrea and Ivo were amazing hosts and hearing their family's story is inspiring. This day was absolutely the highlight of our trip!
