Healthy Holidays
HOLIDAYS WITH AN ADDITIONAL VALUE
Hike through the forest. The kids romp happily in the farmyard. Pay the calf a visit in the barn. Bike to the lake together ... Or would you rather like to lounge on the meadow today, watching the clouds go by?
There’s never a dull moment during a farm stay in Austria! There’s so much to do and to explore. A special highlight awaits you on a herb farm: you can create your custom tea blend and take it home as a souvenir. A taste of your dream holiday for every single day of the year!
Rediscover Traditional Knowledge
The herbalists have both feet firmly on the ground. They know how to make use of old-time remedies.
What alleviates anxiety? What aids the body’s healing process? With passion and knowledge, they take care of the core of the farmer’s garden: the herb garden. Using these botanical treasures, they prepare tea, delicious herb-infused syrups or tangy spirits.
Watch and learn! They show you how it’s done: petals or stems, leaves or roots. Torn or pick, cut or chop. Press, dry, brew ...
Get inspired!
Natural Health - Natural Beauty
Hildegard of Bingen was convinced that natural herbal remedies could cure any disease. Though, there may not be a cure for everything, herbs provide great health benefits for the body and mind indeed, provided that they are applied correctly.
A cup of tea tastes good, it can help you heal, calm down and soothe. A herbal pillow sends you sweet dreams. And a pressed-flower bar soap makes your hair shine like summer on a foggy autumn day.
On the Herb Farm in Austria
Close to nature on the farm
Sitting on the bench next to the farmhouse, you’re enjoying the first rays of sunshine and watch the hens scratching the ground. The farm’s cat has just returned from a nocturnal adventure and is now weaving between your legs. The kids are splitting their sides on the adjacent meadow.
Later on, you will all go on a hike. But now you want nothing more than to sit here. Take another sip of your tea or your refreshing lemonade made of wild herbs that you’ve collected yourself. You have arrived.
Since we truly are green witches, we know “Mother Nature’s pharmacy” like the backs of our hands. Stomach ache or skin problems - we know a herbal remedy that helps.
Guided Herb Walks
Sage reduces menopausal symptoms. Spruce or fir tip syrup is a natural cough remedy. Nature - what a treasure chest!
During a guided walk focusing on herbs, you will discover its secrets. Learn about the practical application of its treasures first-hand. The certified herb farmers and botanists have vast knowledge that combines old traditions and new findings.
Just ask your host on the farm for her favourite recipes and custom blends!
Herbal Pillow
A home-made herbal pillow is more than just a nice souvenir for the ones at home. Its stuffing invites you to smell, dream and reminisce. It’s great fun to collect and use the herbs.
Last but not least, a herbal pillow from the farm is one of the nicest ways to wrap up a dose of health.
