PR' JUREČ

The Bogataj family has collection of around 300 antique farm tools and machines that they use to demonstrate the old way of life on a Slovene farm and a variety of traditional handicrafts. 

In their Soil-Wheat-Bread program, participants first work in the fields sowing various types of seeds, then thresh wheat, and finally bake bread in the oven. The Bogataj family also offers a three-day Rural Life program intended primarily for children. The children, who sleep in a dormitory, help feed the animals, go for walks on the Petelinka forest trail, learn about the trees, etc. 

The food on the farm is naturally homemade and home-grown. Along with freshly baked bread, guests can look forward to a variety of dried meat items, roast pork, buckwheat žganci (groats), traditional Idrija žlikrofi, and walnut or hazelnut štruklji. At Easter, a special traditional dish called Easter Alleluia is prepared that is rarely found anywhere else. The farm is a great starting point for hikes on the Ledina plateau and visits to nearby Idrija and the interesting old towns of Cerkno and Škofja Loka.
