Our next adventure is just outside of Havana.
OK, it is another farm... because some people don't have the time all the way to Vinales! Discover the unique story of Finca Tungasuk - an organic family farm in Cuba run by Alfredo and Annabelle. Formerly a UN election monitor and culinary expert, this unlikely duo creates inventive dishes influenced by their heritage. From exotic Latin American beans to neglected Cuban fruits, every meal is a culinary adventure.
At Finca Tungasuk, guests can experience a "farm to table" 4-course lunch with authentic flavors and Cuban coffee.
We absolutely love the cooking experience offered here! You select the ingredients from the farm and create your own 3 course meal.
But it's not just about dining; visitors can also learn sustainable farming practices firsthand on a 'volunteer day'. Of course, lunch will be included for those who are willing to get their hands dirty and help out, whilst learning the way of the land.
Alfredo and Annabelle's dedication to sustainability is evident in every aspect of the farm, from planting to harvesting.
Despite their initial lack of farming knowledge, the couple embraced the challenge with determination. They now live harmoniously within the local community, exchanging goods and contributing to a self-sufficient way of life without even owning a car. The journey from novice farmers to integral members of the Cuban countryside is truly inspiring. Experience the magic of Finca Tungasuk and taste the passion for sustainable living in every bite. |
