Countryside, Life's teacher
There is so much to learn from the countryside. Our guests, young and old, are involved in the knowledge of the area, its morphology, natural characteristics, traditions and customs through direct contact with the rural reality of Gallura. We illustrate agricultural activities, crops, breeding, processing methods and environmental protection techniques to the youngest, paying particular attention to direct observation of the life cycle and the importance of respecting nature through conscious use and parsimonious of Earth, Water, Fire and Air. In our program there are naturalistic itineraries with the observation of native plants, their characteristics and the explanation of their importance for the protection of the territory and its hydrogeological structure. One of the proposed itineraries has our medicinal herbs as protagonists, their characteristics and therapeutic properties, the methods of conservation and extraction. But the most appreciated part of our ludic-educational and recreational activities is undoubtedly that which concerns our four-legged friends; the donkeys Oreste and Pedro with their friend Pony Aron, the Tibetan goats, the geese, ducks and laying hens. Spring is the best time to witness the spectacle of life. The births of donkeys, kids and chicks are undoubtedly one of the most touching and meaningful experiences for our guests. Animal-human contact, in addition to transmitting positivity and serenity, is the first step in understanding the importance of respecting animals, their needs and well-being.
