Upon arrival, enjoy an introduction to the village’s rich history and cultivation techniques, as well as the traditional use of these vegetables in Vietnamese medicine.
Next, roll up your sleeves and join the farmers! Take a tour of the vegetable garden and assist with activities such as fertilizing and preparing the land using local seaweed, along with other farming tasks like raking, sowing, and harvesting, depending on the day.
After your immersive farming experience, head to a local family’s home to prepare authentic Vietnamese dishes. Enjoy specialties like Tam Huu (spring rolls) and Banh Xeo (traditional Vietnamese pancake), made with fresh, hand-picked ingredients from the garden.
