A Day in the Countryside: Family Farm & Spa Experience

Overview

Step away from the usual tourist haunts, and spend the day away from the city, deep within the traditional Chilean countryside, 1 hour from Santiago. We'll start the day by visiting a permaculture farm. Hosted by the owners, you'll get to experience and learn all the nuances of running a permaculture venture. This farm, filled with heritage species, practices permaculture, seed preservation, and vertical agriculture not because they are "trendy" but because these are the practices Joel, our host, learned straight from his grandmother. Within the plot there is also a small patch of native forest. Here you are welcome to explore and breathe for a bit. Connect to the trees and spend a moment imbued in the forest. Afterwards, we'll head to a local beer microbrewery for a traditional lunch paired with some of their delicious craft beers. We will end the day at a local Spa, where your visit will include a 60 minute massage and another hour soaking in one of their wood-fired hot tubs.
