Welcome to the apiary of farmer Emil Patov and his charming family. The hosts will show you life in the hive, tell you interesting information about bees and introduce you to all the bee products that the hardworking bees produce. You will help in the seasonal work of maintaining the hives and you will taste delicious desserts with bee honey.
In addition, you will join the Patovi family's workshop, where they will show you how to make decorative beeswax candles to decorate your home.
The farm tour continues with a visit to the Evamel Ltd. mill. The kind hosts will show you the way from grain to flour in one of the few remaining authentic mills from the early 20th century. Here you will be able to see how seven types of flour are produced. Four of them are produced using classic roller mill technology, and the remaining three types are whole grain flours, obtained using one of the oldest flour production technologies, the "stone" one, in which the grain is ground in a stone mill and thus retains all its valuable qualities.
The farm tour ends with a visit to the Lambevi dairy farm. The farmers will tell you about life on the farm and the care they take for their cows. Here you will be able to taste the farm's dairy products, made entirely from cow's milk. You will try white brine cheese and yellow cheese, whose natural taste will take you back to your childhood and to visits to the village full of adventures and memories.
