Eating Farm to Table
I LOVE FOOD!
I guess most of us do, but all things considered, I feel I am a person especially connected with my gut. I am a grazer, I like to eat a little bit all day, and here at FINCA OMETEPE, I can graze to my heart's content.
Coming from living in a city most of my life, I never realized how incredibly satisfying it is to eat food you have grown yourself, on your own land. It tastes so much better! Maybe it is just because it is so fresh, or perhaps because everything is organic? I don't know, but wow, I really enjoy eating here on the farm. Everything you see on the plate in the photograph was grown on our farm, except the olives. The starfruit was the first we have ever seen on our tree. There are 5 types of greens, fresh Moringa leaves, cucumbers, carrots, basil..... YUM. We also baked a squash, filled it with rice, cheese (made locally), and veggies. Quick, healthy, and yummy. What more could one want?
