HOME FARMS PRESERVES Dwellings are built for indoor-outdoor living with outside ovens, barbecues and shaded terraces - perfect places to dry out foraged food such as pomegranates, herbs and mountain tea. You will also see plastic bags hanging everywhere. Like village art pieces, they originate from the markets where you will have to work hard to stop everything you buy being consigned to an individual bag. Indoors, almost every kitchen table is crowded with seasonal culinary projects waiting to be completed: wild greens to be steamed; fruit to be jammed; herbs to be bundled and nuts to be shelled.
