Gintong Bukid Farm and Leisure highlighted the farm to table concept, serving specialty cuisine from their fresh farm produce like ‘menudong gulay’. The three (3)-hectare organic farm is also the home of various high value crops. Whilst, Yumi’s Farm advocates organic farming for a healthier lifestyle. Situated at the foot of Mt. Banahaw, the farm induces cool and breezy weather. Different farm activities are featured in the three (3)-hectare integrated organic farm including farm tours, farm to table menu, camping and fireflies hunting for kids.
