Today we live a lifestyle very different from our grandparents. When we need to eat or dress us, we went to big supermarkets to buy everything. Formerly, people did not have enough money to buy, so they worked the land which provides them with sustenance to live, and domesticated animals to get raw materials in order to obtain food or clothes.
We suggest changing your daily habits to live a day at the ranch in Tolox and know a different lifestyle and nowadays it seems from another age: caring and feeding to animals which we present below.
Activities for a weekend or two days:
- First day: Meeting different types of domestic animals and learning how to take care of them:
This activity consists of visiting a small rural ranch of Tolox where its owner will teach us their animals, his food, his care, etc.
Firstly, we will visit the ranch buildings and see where pigs, hens, sheep and rabbits eat and sleep. Then, we will learn what they eat and visitors can feed them. Likewise, the farmer will teach which products give us every animal: wool, milk, meat or eggs.
Depending on the station, we will be able to see some or other animals and we will do activities with these. For example, we will learn to milk coats or we will try to shear sheep.
Around noon, visitors can taste a rural lunch outdoors. After the lunch, they will carry out a rancher gymkana, where they will test their knowledge acquired in the morning. Visitors will do activities related to the life in a ranch and play games to enjoy in the field.
- Second day: Cooking a dish typical of the Sierra de las Nieves: "Conejo con Tomate".
All these resources obtained from domestic animals are closely related to the gastronomy of Tolox, so we will learn to cook a traditional dish: “Conejo con Tomate”, typical and delicious dish to dismiss this activity and reload forces to return to the daily routine.
