Traditional Farm Experience Overview
Get down and dirty with Campesinos. (And no, we don’t mean some nighttime shenanigans.)
We meant: milk some cows, crush sugar cane, make chocolate, taste moonshine straight from the still, have a cooking lesson, and do an extensive farm tour. Everything is organic and rustic!
The Costa Rican campesino farmer is a hardworking individual who works the land and provides for his family. They are well versed in the traditional farming methods that have been passed down from generation to generation.
Learn all about these different traditional techniques that have kept the farmer family alive for years— visiting a Campesino farm is an adventure through Costa Rica’s history that you can touch!

Visit a traditional Costa Rican family-owned farm, a farm that does not survive on tourist dollars alone—it is a working farm that sells milk in town every morning and puts in the hard work it takes to run a small farm.
