wHacienda DayPRADO FARMS OCTOBER 2019 Day Tour Packages

What is Hacienda Day?At a glance..

PRADO FARMS Eco - Resort is situated within a sprawling hacienda dedicated to bio-dynamic farming, where you can get away from the rat race of the city to simply relax, unwind, and eat healthy for a day. Swim, go fishing, and bike to your heart's content! You can also check out the farm animals, or simply indulge in clean, fresh air to clear your head.

Guaranteed to rejuvenate!

Our packages are also perfect for company outings, educational tours and family reunions.

The Hacienda Day TourAs Prado’s LPG gates swing open for arriving guests, we give them a special Kapampangan welcome

by ushering them into the Salangi (that’s Kapampangan for “come into the shade”). Here, refreshments

made from locally grown lemon grass await them.

Morning MeriendaAfter registration at the reception counter, guests

may proceed to the Prado store to check out what’s

available as pasalubongs, or merely to note the

store’s peculiar décor, which hints at more

peculiarities to encounter.

A mid-morning minindal, Kapampangan style, awaits

guests at the verandah. On some days it might be

tsokolate and fried suman. On others it could be

binatog (steamed white corn kernels flavored with

salt and coconut shavings) and coffee. What

follows is a tour of the quaint structures on the

farm, each one with a story to tell. If walkabouts are

not your thing, you have choices to get around -

on a bicycle or a carabao-drawn cart.

Whimsical things to see..

After the morning merienda, a tour on our front and farm area will follow.

Swimming PoolsJust behind the red theatre is the

kiddie pool with a screened dome

over it. A smaller one has been

recently added at the side of the

theatre. The big salt-water swimming

pool is to be reached through a gate

at the end of the orchard. It is built

above a pond, so in the season of

rain, you could very well be enjoying

a swim in the pool while underneath,

carabaos cool themselves in the

pond.

Activities for the KidsGuests with children have a number of options

to keep the little ones engaged. Kids can be

kids here – with all the space they need expend

their energies in. They could go around on

foot, or on bikes, or on a carabao-drawn cart.

How much swimming, wading, climbing, running, fishing

and playing can they fit in a day? A lot. The

more adventurous won’t lack for hidden

corners, crawl spaces and untrodden paths to

explore. They could go and see the ducks, the

goats, cows and carabaos. Our pigs roam free,

feed on surplus vegetables and quality feeds,

which is why they do not smell.

From Farm to the Table..

We practice what we preach. Most of the food we serve exemplifies

farm-to-table cuisine. Not far from the dining hall is where it all comes

from. You’ll see the rice crops, the assorted vegetables we grow and the

animals we raise biodynamically. The pig pens house more than a

hundred pigs in beds of sawdust. They roam free, give off no odor, and

feed on high-quality feeds and arugula. Whatever’s in season, whatever

we have a surplus of, that’s what they feed on. Nothing is wasted. These

practices explain the special quality and taste of the pork we serve, and

our pride in our lechon. We grow basil, talelong, kangkong, arugula,

alugbati, medicinal plants like serpentina, aloe vera, culinary herbs,

banaba, guyabano, pandan-lalaki, lemon grass, turmeric, galangal or

langkawas.

w

Kera KeraThe word means “to lie down, to chill”. That’s

what people do at the kerakera, the natural next

stop after lunch. A coffee room adjoining the

main lodge is where guests relax and continue

conversations over coffee or tea. The kerakera

was built in the 1980s as a retreat house, the

largest structure on the farm. Like all the others, it

has a homey, lived-in, period feel, having been built

with recycled wood and other materials.

Everywhere is an invitation to recline, to rest, to

nap…the couches strewn with throw pillows, the

cushioned seaters, the wide wooden staircase

that leads up to the rooms.

For those wanting to stay overnight, the kerakera offers choices of rooms. See our room rates here.
