This is the detailed program of the day that includes the above event.
Friday - Wild greens & vegetables
08:00:00 Harvest your breakfast.
Come to the farm, early in the morning, and participate in the collection of the ingredients of your breakfast. Milk the goats, harvest vegetables, collect the eggs from the chickens.

Agrion Terra Farm is surrounded by extensive olive orchards, vineyards and vegetable garden. We will find the goats under an olive tree and milk them; "visit" the chickens and collect fresh eggs; walk through the vegetable garden and harvest vegetables. Or... we will simply follow Stelios and watch his way of doing it!

08:30:00 Breakfast
All breakfast ingredients are home made organic products. Breakfast includes: Bread, cretan rusk, two types of cheese, yoghurt, honey, two types of marmelade, butter, eggs, various vegetables, fresh orange juice, coffee. Coffee is conventionally provided.

Stelios will show us the proper species of wild greens and vegetables that are right to collect at that season. He will describe basic methods of organic agriculture that he uses for producing his organic vegetables. He will be accompanied by Kostas, an agronomist specialized in organic agriculture. Kostas is the consultant of Agrion Terra group, as far as it concerns organic agriculture.

10:30:00 Free time, or tailor made optional activities.
This is YOUR time! Free to swim, or settle down and get lazy!!! The more active ones will have the opportunity to participate in fascinating excursions which are organised outside the premises of the organic farms, accompanied by experienced professionals. We will be happy to arrange all the details fof you.

Today AGRION TERRA is suggesting a tour to the historical monastery of Preveli, at the south coast of Rethymnon. After the monastery we visit the gorge of Limni, Preveli, a Natura 200 protected area of unique natural beauty.

Wash the greens, prepare them and cook them... boiled freshed wild greens, served with olive oil taste much better than you could ever imagine. We prepare the wild greens in 4 different ways.
