FOOD
My people have been
eating from the fields longer than any local foods movement. Our seeds have been passed down from our ancestors for hundreds of years. All food is organic, locally harvested and fresh from the ground.
You are welcome to juice and smoothie fast, prepare your own dishes, or order tajines - a delicious traditional dish - from my sister who lives in the village.
Self Serve Breakfast Bar
Coffee, tea, village fresh milk, fruits, puffed grains, eggs from our chicken residents, fresh butter, marmalade, jam and fresh baked bread. You will find the communal kitchen pleasant and easy to navigate.
