Key information
A farm bursting with life
Amazing dishes that combine homegrown ingredients from the fields, flower garden, and herbal garden, with the creativity of the cooks, Vilma and Urška. Recipes passed down by grandmothers, with a modern twist.
Urška Tourist Farm has received the highest awards, and was the first tourist farm in Slovenia to get the EU Ecolabel certificate, so it’s not a surprise that it is also one of the first holders of the Slovenia Green Cuisine label. They grow and make most of the ingredients at their organic farm, and are very particular about all their equipment, which is why every dish is served on plates that are handmade by local artisans. Their guests can also enjoy unique experiences like sleeping in the hayrack, stargazing, picking eggs from the hen-house, visiting the neighbouring farm, helping to bake bread, or learning how to make felt.

Organic homegrown food
In the beautiful natural environment of the organic farm, Urška brings the guests beautifully and creatively plated dishes full of homegrown ingredients. Their specialties are dishes with edible flowers. The flower soup, probably their most photographed dish, completely changes colour as the seasons change from spring to autumn. In spring it is decorated with primroses, daisies and violets, in summer with roses, marigolds, lavender, and in autumn the roses and marigolds are joined by nasturtiums and cornflowers and other flowers. The colour of their flower butter also changes with the seasons. Other flower-themed dishes on their menu are gnocchi with pot marigold sauce, dandelion jam cake, rose jam, which goes perfectly with beef, and lavender syrup.
Have you ever heard of ognjišna potica or čveček soup? These two dishes are prepared by the cook, Vilma, following the recipes of her grandmothers. Ognjišna potica, or fireplace potica, looks more like prleška gibanica than a typical potica. It got its name because it is made in the fire in the bread oven. And čveček soup is a plum soup, as plums are called čvečeks in the local dialect. It is very thick, and served as a dessert at the Urška Tourist Farm.
