About This Adventure

Join a unique cooking class at Lefkada Micro Farm, where you'll harvest fresh organic vegetables and learn to create iconic Greek dishes. Experience the joy of kneading dough in a wood-burning oven, preparing delicious meals, and savoring your creations in a beautiful open-air kitchen, all while enjoying the serene countryside.

Duration: 4 Hours

Our cooking class starts with a welcoming morning coffee and tea. We start the fire in the wood burning oven and we begin to knead our dough. We then walk around Lefkada Micro Farm to harvest vegetables for our lunch and learn how our food grows. Get to know our trees, our vegetables and our animals. By the time we get back to the kitchen the oven is already hot and ready to bake our loaves. We prepare the vegetables for the Briam (roasted mixed vegetables) and place it in the oven. By the time the main dish is cooked we’ve already prepared the Greek salad and Tzatziki using the freshest vegetables, goat cheese and traditional sheep yoghurt from small local dairies. Finally, we sit together in our open air kitchen and enjoy what we’ve prepared.
