At 700 metres above sea level, in an idyllic place where the slopes of the Pohorje mountains gradually give way to the plains, where the silence and serenity of the surrounding forests and meadows can be felt, the “Pri Baronu” (At the Barons’) organic farm has been situated for over 200 years. Our farm covers an area of 18 hectares, 8 hectares of which are the fields, meadows, orchard, herb and vegetable gardens which are cultivated with our hard-working hands. Thus, we take care of the self-sufficiency of our farm. In 1991, we opened the doors of our farm for agri-tourism, so that our visitors can enjoy the delicacies from our kitchen in peace and quiet to their hearts’ (and stomachs’) content.
In 1999, we switched to environmentally friendly farming, for which we have received the organic label for many years. Since then, our work has been based on growing fresh and organic produce ourselves and then processing them as ingredients in tasty, high-quality meals and products.
Upon your arrival, the Baron family will greet you and prepare a tasting of their organic products (jams, meat products, liqueurs, schnapps, cordials, etc.). After the tasting, you will hear a talk on organic and permaculture farming. This is followed by a tour of the farm, our organic gardens and the organic shop. After the tour, a seasonal lunch will be served. Finally, we will visit the village of Planica (Holy Cross Church, Potnik spruce and much more).
