I remember many of you loved my entry on Fun Farm at Santa Elena. It really is a lovely place for kids an kids at heart. My friend Hindy Tantoco manages this place with her family. I adore their lifestyle in Santa Elena. It’s what many of us dream of – fresh air, organic produce, lots of open space for children. I love that they are able to share this beautiful place with many people. And on May 27th, we can all discover the simple joys of country living in Santa Elena.
After we went to Fun Farm with my kids’ friends, we convinced Stella’s preschool to do their field trip here.

On May 27, Sta. Elena Golf & Country Estate, a golf course and residential community in Laguna, is opening its gates to host its first Balik Bukid Country Fair. They’re preparing a lot of activities for the family – holistic fun, recreation and entertainment. I hope they have fresh guyabano juice from Holy Carabao because it was really good the last time I was there.
Activities include saddling up a horse, horseback riding, fishing, feeding the cows, climbing trees, and chasing chickens.
They’ve added more thrilling activities like off-road biking, interactive trekking, an outdoor obstacle course, rope courses, a big trampoline, a sprinkler playground, and other bukid games. Photo from Balik Bukid.

The 1st Balik Bukid Country Fair will also feature local craftsmen and hip designers selling earth-friendly creations for apparel, accessories and home decor. And to cap off the country-style festivity, guest artists will be serenading families with acoustic vibes. There will also be healthy and organic cuisines.
