Fruit, Vegetables, Cheese & Meat Preparation & Preservation


Preserving fruits, vegetables and meat for the winter time is a long tradition in Romania kept for generations. The ecosystem Carpathian Garden offers a great variety of natural ingredients – probably one of the last remaining ecosystems in Europe.

We only use ingredients picked in the surrounding orchards and  forests or produced by small farmers.
