WE APPROACH OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH NATURE WITH RESPECT, LOOKING AT ISSUES FROM A HOLISTIC POINT OF VIEW.

VISION

Our intent is to access the maturity and ingenuity that exists. To create projects that respect nature and our relationship with other humans. Projects that can provide continuing sustainable development and harness regenerative powers. While at the same time creating alternative realities by hacking the dead ends we face today as humanity.

The FarmThe Farm

The Farm

Where respect shapes every creation and knowledge brings us closer to the land.

Our relationship with our guests and people that purchases our products is built on respect. Aiming to create products and services that are of the highest quality and are certified by the public. We wish to provide an educational aspect to our products and services. Bringing our projects, nature and the people that come into contact with them closer.

01

OLIVE GROVE

A unique ancient olive grove unlike no other, untouched by the millennia in the center of our organic farm. Given to us to care for, we cultivate our perennial trees, the wild olives and the “new” ones. Three distinct varieties: Myrtolia, Koroneiki and Agrelia make our organic olive oil blend. Biodynamic, Permaculture and non intrusive farming practices respect the flora and fauna and create ground for regenerative healing of the soil.

02

WINE VINEYARDS

Grapevines for fruit, grapevines for natural wine! At eumelia we cultivate five distinct local and regional varieties: Kydonitsa, Athiri, Moschofilero, Agiorgitiko and Avgoustiatis. Greece and wine have a long historical connection from the symposiums in ancient times to the modern re-connection with indigenous varieties. Tacked between our olive groves, rooted in our red clay soil we care for our vineyards using polyculture, biodynamic and permaculture practices. Our grapes are handpicked, traditionally stomped and vinified naturally.

03

VEGETABLE GARDEN

Farm to table rocks! Our raised garden beds provide all the seasonal organic vegetables for the hotel and restaurant all year round. Greek and Mediterranean vegetable varieties reach your plate freshly cut everyday. Co-planting, composting and mulching create healthy soil that provides an amazing base for nutritious and scrumptious veggies.

04

GREEK HERBS

Herbalicious farm! Located at the foothills of Mount Parnonas where Hippocrates collected herbs to create powerful healing medications. The Greek herbs are famous for their potency and medicinal value. At eumelia you can find them wild as we forage, in our meditative herb spiral or among our olive groves and vineyards. Look for the famous oregano, rosemary, saffron, saint john’s wort, thyme and many more. Combined with our organic olive oil, infused to create potent oils and natural soaps.

05

FARM ANIMALS

A farm needs its animals and the animals need their farm! Domesticated animals are critical for our farm’s sustainability and regenerative work on the soil. By creating overlapping circles we enhance sustainability. Circle are created by feeding the animals wild grasses and garden veggie leftovers. The animals produce manure to enrich the soil and control wild grasses overgrowth. At eumelia we host local and regional breeds some of which almost became extinct, like the black pig of Greece. We work with a Greek NGO that catalogues rare breeds and finds places like our farm to raise them and rescues the breeds from extinction. These animals provide fresh organic eggs, milk, cheese and live comfortable in a stress free environment.

  • NEW ETHOS

    Feeling the need to approach our relationship with nature with respect and a new ethos. Not simply wanting to receive from her, but to provide an atmosphere where we can give back.  Or at least create the ground where nature can replenish and heal herself. We began to create our organic farm and products.

  • DIALOGUE WITH NATURE

    We proceeded with this in mind during the design period, we wanted to create a dialogue between the plants themselves.  As well as the humans working or visiting the farm. Our wish was to cultivate our farm and create products that are both beneficial to our human needs. As well as taking care of  the needs of the soil and plants.

  • HOLISTIC APPROACH

    Having knowledge of the medical approach of homeopathy. I felt it was necessary to create a farm that was a complex organism. Just as the human body is. To view the needs of the farm from a holistic point of view. We planted almond trees along with olives trees in order to create a communication that was beneficial to both of them. We strengthened this dialogue by introducing pine and cypress trees as well as grape vines.

  • POLYCULTURE

    Each type of plant or tree brings a positive element that alleviates the stress on single plants. By introducing organisms beneficial to each other we minimize the risk of an attack on a single plant or tree. The herb fields where also designed in a similar way. By including plant walls with mixed herbs that brought positive forces as well as introduced the necessary pluralism.

  • BIODYNAMIC FARMING & PERMACULTURE

    In order to support our plants and trees we use homeopathic products created for the use in homeodynamic agriculture. A method based on the principals of biodynamic agriculture. We have designed our organic farm in harmony with nature and used permaculture practices. We unite humans and nature and we protect nature by amplifying its resilience and regenerative forces.

Vision

A NEW CENTURY CALLS US TO RETHINK HOW WE LIVE, HOW WE RELATE, AND HOW WE SHAPE OUR FUTURE.

Heading into the 21st century our vision is to grasp the opportunity to reposition ourselves as individuals towards all of our human daily interactions. How we relate to nature, our relationships with other human beings.  How we approach our business direction and decisions and how we view the world around us. We are in this fortunate position in human history in part to the incredible experience humanity has amassed in the past. As well as our ability to develop technology that can resolve the majority of our problems.
