From 15 September · Dudeștii NoiWhat you pick here is what I grew myself. You come, choose straight off the plant, and around midday a farm snack is waiting for you in the shade.
Entry is 60 lei per adult, snack included. Children under 14 come in free. Vegetables are paid by the kilo.
Let us know before you comeA day or two ahead, or even the same morning, but at least 3 hours before, so the snack is ready and someone is there for you.
Walk the rows and choose straight off the plant, and around midday you get the snack. Children under 14 come in free, with a snack of their own. The vegetables are paid by the kilo on your way out.

The snack: a rustic platter of farm produce, in the shade.
Fishing at the pond with Raul's rod, the animals for the children, shade and a chair.
The vegetables are weighed and we settle up. Until then, stay as long as you like.
Superb location, delicious food, like at home, with produce from the farm and their own garden. A welcoming, warm and friendly host. An experience worth repeating!
A wonderful location, with everything you could want. A welcoming host, a great cook, and extremely likeable on top of it. I recommend it wholeheartedly!
Very interesting, especially for families with children.
I recommend it to everyone, grown-ups and little ones alike.

The entry covers the snack, the pond, the animals and drinking water. Vegetables, eggs and fruit are paid separately.
All my life I wanted to find again the real taste of childhood, the one I knew every time I went to the country, to my grandparents. Nothing compared to fruit picked straight off the tree, or vegetables gathered from the garden.
At Grădina lui Raul I set out to bring back that magic of the old tastes. Everything we grow here is raised with care, exactly the way our grandparents did it, no compromises and no chemicals.

This is the most important thing in my growing. Everything is grown organically and in permaculture.— Raul
Nothing sprayed on to make it go faster.
The soil is fed, not forced.
The hens, chicks and ducks roam free-range.

The cauldron meal isn't served in the field. It is cooked at the eatery in the village, by reservation, 2–3 days ahead.
