Our story
“In a world where agriculture has been lost, we are bringing it back into families.”
“We are delighted that you want to be part of our family story.”
For you
We want you and your family to experience more of the flavours of fresh fruit and high-quality homemade products, to breathe in the enticing aromas you can find here, and to create memories just as Proust did through his madeleine.
We want you to spend more time in u nature..
We want you to stop..
We want to awaken all five of your senses – smell, taste, touch, sight and sound – in this world where moments get lost in the crowd. We do this through our fruit and products, and through our excursion site.
Today, there is truly nothing more valuable than daring to stop and live in the moment. That is what we want to offer you through our work.
We share with you the values that guide us: family,, togetherness, and love of nature and the creation of something that truly matters. If you have ever visited us or tasted our products, we believe you were able to feel all of this too.

About us
Today, we are a family that has fallen in love with fruit growing and fruit processing. We are a family driven forward by a passion for what we do – towards new challenges, growth and progress – while the quality of what we produce remains our highest priority.
We are located in a small village in central Istria called Podmeja. Here, we are surrounded by beautiful nature, peace and quiet, birdsong, and views of the lake and the small hills of central Istria. On one hill, which we have arranged as a place for your soul, you can experience all of this for yourself.

If you are looking for fresh fruit, you can expect it from us from August until the end of February, provided that nature rewards the effort we put in throughout the year. Our fresh-fruit season begins with plums and continues with vineyard peaches, apples, pomegranates, quinces and persimmons.
Unlike the fresh-fruit season, which is limited in duration, our homemade products are generally available throughout the year. Almost all of our products are 100% fruit, meaning that they contain no preservatives or added sugar, and are made from the juiciest and freshest fruit from our orchards.
The homemade products we offer include persimmon chips, apple chips, natural apple cider vinegar, plum fruit spread, fig fruit spread, quince fruit spread and extra virgin olive oil. In recent years, we have also devoted particular attention to distillates and liqueurs such as lozovača grape brandy, Teranino, Biska, Kuš, quince brandy and Williams pear brandy.
The availability of both our fresh fruit and our products depends on nature herself – the true mistress of our family farm.

How did it all begin?
To return to the very beginning of our story, we must go back to the year 2000. That year was a turning point for Andrija and Đenis – two young people who decided to make many changes that required courage and great faith in themselves. They began building their family, while Andrija decided to change the way the existing family farm operated and take responsibility for it himself.
His parents had once made a good living primarily from livestock farming and working with animals. By the year 2000, however, that way of working was no longer sustainable, so Andrija decided to open a completely new branch of the family farm – fruit growing.
That change became a love of nature and creation. The love grew into a serious hobby, and today it is a business embraced by the entire family. With the help of their three children – Amanda, Karla and Vito – Andrija and Đenis are involved not only in fruit growing, but also in processing, organising events and workshops at their farm, and raising awareness of the quality of local fruit and products.
