Antique 4N/5D Culinary and Permaculture Immersion

Take on a unique 4N/5D culinary and permaculture immersion in the province of Antique, “where the mountains meet the sea”.  Unfettered by overtourism and commercial development, Antique offers a glimpse of rural, pastoral life as you ride past rice farms, beaches, small neighbourhoods and schools with lush mountains as your backdrop. 

Cooking classes with chef Ken Cazeñas start with a mystery basket of ingredients from Alpas’ backyard garden and local market. Participants are guided through different preparations of each ingredient to make any variety of soup, salad, roasted or grilled side dishes, sauces, and more. Classes always focus on using your intuition to guide your cooking, local ingredients and minimizing waste. Vegetarian/vegan cooking classes are welcomed. 

Beyond culinary delights, this immersion also includes a session where you get to learn Buri weaving from local experts, a 4-hr session where participants weave a small bag or box using Buri palm leaves.

The permaculture immersion will take place in Green Warrior Eco-Farm, a fully-operational permaculture farm that grows organic black rice, free-range native black pigs, chicken, ducks and native tilapia.
