THE FARM

A farm where animals were raised in the past, today vegetables and fruit are grown that allow the production of jams (pumpkin, raspberry, strawberry and onion), strawberry jam, marmalade and arbutus liqueur. The preparation of our dishes is also enriched with the use of these delicious products.
