This kid-friendly day trip picnic is the perfect choice for a day out. Spend a day at the Yeto farm, a Scandinavian designed farm run by a musician and chef and immerse yourself in a gastronomic ride as Gaurav, your host takes you through their authentic Konkani cuisine, passed down through 3 generations. These heritage recipes are unique to the Palolem and Karwar belt (where Gaurav is from) and you’re unlikely to find these flavors anywhere else.
The day trip includes a guided farm tour where you can explore and learn about the produce they grow, a vinyl listening session where you can choose from the 2000+ records from their collection and end with an art talk over chai where they invite perspectives on the contemporary art collection at their farm. Of course, you can choose to just hang out and do your own thing :)

What's included
What's not
- Transport is not included.
- There are multiple options to get to the farm:
- a. Take the ferry from Bhaucha Dhakka to Mora. It’s a 1 hour ride and ferries ply every 20 minutes at 80/- per person. There is an auto rickshaw stand outside Mora Jetty which will bring you to our farm in 15-20 minutes for a fixed fee of 150/-. The same route can be planned for your return trip as well.
- b. Drive down – we have parking for 3 cars which is ample for a group of upto 10 people
- c. Reach out to the host for a third party private car hire service that charges roughly 3000/- from Bandra to the farm and back. Uber/Ola charge nearly the same but their private car hire partner is more reliable and won’t cancel on you.
