Have you ever heard of the term , “farmcation”? It is a play with the word staycation. A staycation is time spent holidaying in your home country rather than abroad. A farmcation, on the other hand, is where you experience a taste of life down on the farm. For quite some time now, we have been combining holiday plans with experiences- yoga in a nature park, surfing, or even a week of get away from all the chaos and people out there. In the midst of a pandemic which led to the total pause of international travels, it is about time that we experience our roots right where we are. One Davao farmcation resort that you must try is the Malagos Garden Resort. 

Farmcation gives you the chance to connect people to rural living. Pick what you eat, milk a goat, or learn more about the famous Malagos cocoa, the immersion you will be doing is all up to you. There will be morning activities for you to enjoy in the farm. While you’re at it, you have the choice to simply sit down on the grass for a while and soak in a bit of sun and nature in you. 

Taking a farmcation is a responsible way of holidaying as you’re staying in your home country. While farmcating, you’re outdoors mostly – social distancing and away from large gatherings and crowds – ensuring that you’re avoiding contracting the deadly Covid 19 virus.

Famcation with Malagos gives you all the privacy you need. From exquisite villas all the way to our single rooms, rest easy on our accommodation without worrying for your privacy. The only time that you will need to interact with others is when you are doing farm activities. By then, you’ll have other guests accompanying you, usually with a lot of questions and photo requests. 

There are certain rules that we need to remember when having a farmcation. On top of the list is being mindful. We have to listen to the guides and do what they say. This is  necessary to remember for making everyone’s experience—yours, other guests’ and the animals’—as safe and fun as possible.

You can always choose to run around-carefully. A farm offers one of the last great places to just run around. In Malagos Garden Resort, exploring a hydroponics garden reveals so many realizations about gardening. Walking beside a stream gives you the chance to encounter endemic birds. Dodging through trees and plants makes a great place for hide and seek. The best part is: you don’t have to be a kid to do it! No one will judge.
