Yogurt

Plus, you will taste test home made yogurt and home made kimchi with a bowl of hot rice.

This workshop is hosted in a very special luxe location – once you arrive onsite you’ll realise how incredible a visit to ORTO Eco Straw Farm is!! Come submerge yourself in Mara’s incredible world on her family’s permaculture-based property and farm stay.
