Details

Situated on the lush Ionian island of Lefkada, the Lefkada Micro Farm offers more than just a meal: it’s a full sensory immersion into the rhythms of Greek countryside living. Located near Nidri, a vibrant town with access to some of the region’s most dramatic coastal views and natural trails, this destination invites visitors to engage directly with the land through its Farm-to-Table Private Dining experience. 

Guests begin with a guided walk through meticulously tended organic gardens, where tomatoes, herbs, and olives thrive beside native wildflowers and grasses. The farm’s soil, enriched by both Mediterranean sun and occasional mountain rain, brings out intense flavors in every herb and vegetable grown. This connection to the source of your food sets the stage for an intimate evening.

The culinary journey is a seven-course Greek meal featuring freshly harvested produce, artisan cheeses, and free-range meats, paired thoughtfully with local wines from nearby vineyards. Each dish reflects traditional Ionian recipes, adapted seasonally to highlight the freshest ingredients straight from the farm. As you savor these dishes under the open sky, the gentle sound of cicadas and the distant sea breeze deepen the sense of place.

Lefkada Micro Farm’s experience stands apart as an active celebration of sustainable agriculture and authentic, regional cuisine, a rare find in a popular tourist area known more for beaches and nightlife. It presents visitors with a chance to understand and taste the distinctive flavors shaped by Lefkada’s unique microclimate and terrain. For outdoor enthusiasts, combining hiking in the nearby hills with evenings at the farm offers a holistic connection to this Ionian island beyond its surface beauty.
