    They don't make 'em like that any more.

    Fortunately.

    What a coincidence! one of the farm owner just invited me few days ago about Organic Farm Tours and to host the Tourism LGU next month at her place in Dalaguete. I can bring 1 D I member with same interest preferably with organic farming knowledge, just PM me if interested. Cheers!

    Sure, it's only difficult, back-breaking work if you are doing it for 12+ hours a day, 7 days a week and during the hottest parts of the day. It's probably also much more satisfying when you are the family running the farm rather than the poor suckers actually working the farm.

    I suggest you give it a 10 minute run around 6:00pm and within close distance to cold beer.

    Are we talking about the wife? I kinda wish they did still made them like that.

    Husband: "The chores."
    Wife: "The stores!"
    Husband: "Fresh Air."
    Wife: "Time Square!"
    ......
    Husband: "You are my wife."
    End of argument.

    You old farts were lucky....or is that why a lot of you ended up divorced?

    Is that a tour for educational type proposes or are they looking for us to pay them for the privilege of working for a day? :wink:

    I visit a few so-called organic farms here in the Philippines. Very disappointing, I believe the girls in Mango Square in Cebu more than the farmers who tell me they do organic farming. I was very disappointed special the way they keep the animals, no freedom, and no happy lives here

    You do my job for me and pay me for letting you do it. In exchange , when your done you can go home to show your friends and loved ones the dirt under your nails and the poop on your shoes, then call it an experience.

    Most of those farm tours they offer both, and they also have native cottages for lounging and farm to table food. Guest will have an option to dine and choose activities like waterfalls, canyoneering and beaches. They also accept retreats such as; Meditation and Yoga ‍♀️ i have done all types of Farm Tours activities even abroad like Bali, and Italy. Recently, i paid 80 euros(we were 70 attendees) 4hrs Organic farm tours with Lunch (organic produce and cured meats)and organic wine.
    There’s a big market for Farm Tourism..Japanese,Chinese and Europians, and the Eco clubs are into it.. and of course the Vegan, Vegetarians and Yogis too!! Obviously, this type of activity is not for everyone cup of tea..but i’m pretty sure you will meet a lot of sexy beautiful soul

    Then the standard here in the Philippines need to be improved a lot after what I have seen. Sure there a market for that kind of business, seen it in Europe, some people live in a box in the city and their kids never seen a cow or a chicken in real, only on tv and that's not a joke
