Highly recommended - Andres tried very hard to show us all the plants in the garden, and his passion was clearly noticeable. The cooking was great fun, and I highly recommend it.

Excellent Experience! - This was an excellent experience! The staff was engaging and knowledgeable. The food was great. This experience was good for everyone, even if you don’t cook much. After lunch, we went on a nature hike and learned about the wildlife. We got to see a sloth, horses, and lots of vegetation. There were goats on site and friendly dogs. Highly recommend this experience!

Andreas was an incredible... - Andreas was an incredible host. He introduced himself to us and introduced us to every other individual in the group to create a good social setting. He gave us the details as to what we were going g to make for dinner, then gave us a tour of the farm. He was very knowledgeable and answered any questions we had about the farm. He prompted us to feed the animals and even allowed us to hold the baby goats (adorable). Then he had us try the sugar cane raw then then pressed some into a juice for us to also try. Afterwards, we made a delicious meal of fried rice, empanadas, and Costa Rican ceviche. The group acted as sous chefs, prepping all the ingredients while Andreas handled the frying of the rice and empanadas. It was a great learning experience, quality dinner, and rewarding social gathering. I would highly recommend!
