Korea Rural Tourism Supporters adventure at Jeollabukdo Imsil Doomari Farm

If you are an avid fan of various dairy products then you should definitely visit the Imsil Cheese Village-Doomari Farm (임실 치즈마을-두마리목장).

As part of 2016 Korea Rural Tourism Supporters 2nd Field trip we visited the Doomari Farm last June 25. (Below is our group's short clip introducing Doomari Farm)

The place is very tranquil and placid. We were welcomed by the accommodating owner of the farm as well as the two cute gentle goats inside the mini playground.

We were lucky enough because the owner of the farm herself taught us the delicate process on how to make the very famous mozzarella cheese and casablanca goat cheese. Needless to say the cheese we made was really delicious and healthy. Healthy in a sense that we prepared it with less salt and no preservatives, also we ate them with fresh cherry tomatoes.

Then after the supporters were also able to experience feeding and getting closer with the goats (산양). The goats were very calm and gentle. 

 

It was indeed a cheesy milky day for all of us.
