This was the best experience of our vacation!! The staff (three women) welcomed us with open arms and with excitement. We were welcomed with a glass of their homemade kombucha. We then started the tour of the farm, we got our own harvesting baskets and a knife to cut all the veggies. Everything we picked later got used in our dishes which was amazing. The staff also lets you taste everything along the way. Our favorite were the passion fruits! We then got to cooking. We made 5 dishes in total and they guided us with every step. It was a fun, relaxed vibe with lots of laughter. They take so many videos and pictures of you during the whole experience which you receive afterwards. After all the cooking, which went dish by dish, step by step, you get to eat everything! And oh my… so delicious, so fresh, we loved it! The complimentary kombucha kept coming. I booked this as a birthday gift and the staff even came with a little present. A cake and a party hat made from banana leaves! To conclude, we had the best time at the farm with the lovely staff. We can’t recommend this experience enough!!

The cooking class at Tara Farm was one of the most memorable experiences of our trip. Our teacher, Nina, and all the staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and well organized. They guided us carefully through every step of the cooking process, making the whole experience both fun and easy to follow. The class started in the organic farm, where we picked fresh herbs and vegetables ourselves. We then used what we had just harvested to prepare our dishes — grinding, simmering, frying, and learning each step of traditional Thai cooking along the way. We were especially amazed by how many different varieties of Thai eggplant there are! The eggplants we picked straight from the garden were incredibly fresh and delicious. We made: ・Grilled Turmeric Chicken ・Spicy Banana Blossom Fritters ・Thai Red Curry ・Stir-fried Eggplant with Pork Everything was delicious, and it was such a wonderful way to learn more about Thai ingredients and food culture. Our 6-year-old son also joined the class, and Nina and the staff were so patient and supportive with him. We really appreciated how warmly they included him and helped him enjoy every part of the experience. One of the loveliest surprises was the recipe book they gave us at the end. They even took photos of us during the class, printed them, and included them in the book. It felt so personal and thoughtful — not just a recipe book, but a beautiful keepsake of our time at Tara Farm. This experience has become a very special memory for our family, and the recipe book is something we will treasure for years to come. If you stay at Tara Farm, we highly recommend joining the cooking class!

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Tara Farm Cooking School. Nina and the team were so kind, thoughtful and attentive. We ranged from 46 to 9 and were 8 of us in total. My 9 year old Ted was supported so kindly by Nina and has now a love of a cooking and cant wait to cook when he gets home. We loved seeing the traditional farm, learning about all the organic home grown ingredients and then learning lots of different cooking methods. We especially enjoyed the cook book, eating our results and some lovely added touches.

We had an amazing experience doing a cooking class at Tara Farm.Nina and Nene were very kind and patient teachers, we had lots of fun and learnt how to prepare 5 different dishes. You get to do everything from scratch, picking up the ingredients in their organic farm, cutting and cooking ingredients, seasoning and then you eat! It was one of the best things we did in Thailand. We will forever remember Nina and Nene and their warmth🫰

Wat een geluk dat we deze kookles zijn gaan doen. Wij hebben meerdere workshops gedaan in Thailand en dit was echt de leukste. We gingen eerst fruit plukken in de tuin. Een welkomst Kombucha en daarna een rondleiding door de moestuin en de dieren. Onderweg moesten wij onze eigen groenten plukken.  Een paar eieren rapen bij de kippen en toen aan het werk. Nina en Nena gaven de instructies en daarna zelf aan de slag. Goede uitleg en oog voor detail. Leuke recepten en daarna alles opeten in  het restaurant. We hadden het dorp wel kunnen uitnodigen qua hoeveelheid. Als verassing nog een heerlijk dessert toe. Bij vertrek een receptenboekje, een tas met vers fruit en een bamboebeker. Een absolute aanrader voor een ieder die van lekker eten houdt of van koken.

What an absolutely wonderful experience. Picking our own herbs and vegetables. Goats and pigs. And then cooking three courses that were delicious. Everyone was so kind and helpful. A highlight of the trip so far and we have done a lot of amazing things. Kids 11 and 13 absolutely loved it. Thank you!!

Tara Farm Resort - Un endroit magique ! Un séjour parfait avec ma femme et ma sœur. L'endroit est magnifique, au calme complet avec une vue de fou, loin du bruit de la ville. Les bungalows sont très sympas et la petite ferme avec les poules et les cochons donne un vrai charme. Tout est fait maison, des petits-déjeuners jusqu'au cours de cuisine qu'on a adoré. C'était un super moment et vraiment délicieux ! L'équipe sur place est exceptionnelle et aux petits soins. Ils ont tout géré pour les transports de A à Z. On n'a eu à se soucier de rien. Génial ! Un grand merci à tous pour votre accueil, on repart avec d'excellents souvenirs !
