Why Here

Why a farm kitchen beats a cooking school

A real farm setting near Valencia

EkkoFarm is not a studio kitchen or a rented event space. It is a working organic farm just 25 minutes outside Valencia — surrounded by fields, fruit trees, herbs and open countryside.

That change of setting matters. It takes your team out of the office, away from screens and into a more relaxed environment where collaboration feels natural.

Real countryside, real ingredients, real conversations — the kind that don't happen across a conference table.

Cook, Compete, Connect

Three formats, one experience

Our cooking off-sites run a few ways, depending on what your team's after:

  • Team cook-off competition

    Groups go head to head to create the best dish from a shared basket of farm ingredients, with a tasting and friendly judging to finish.

  • Chef-led cooking experience

    A guided, hands-on session where the team prepares a seasonal menu together under our chef's direction.

  • Farm-to-table feast

    Your team harvests, preps and cooks a full meal, then sits down to enjoy it at a long table on the farm.

Real Outcomes

What your team actually gets out of it

Beyond a good lunch, a cooking off-site does the work most team-building exercises promise but rarely deliver:

  • People communicate, delegate and solve problems together — without forcing it
  • Quieter team members find a role and step forward
  • Mixed teams from different offices or countries find common ground over food
  • Everyone leaves with a shared story, not a branded mug

It works particularly well for multinational teams, post-project celebrations, leadership off-sites, and welcoming new hires.

What Teams Say

Teams who cooked with us

“The cook-off was the moment everything shifted. People who barely spoke at the office ended up deciding together how to plate the dessert. The stories from that day are still going round.”

“Cooking with vegetables harvested that morning lifted the whole meal — and the conversation. Nobody touched their phone for four hours.”

“We had a team of 28 from six different countries. Cooking together did what three days of onboarding couldn't — got everyone talking, laughing and working side by side.”
