Hacienda Sarapampa: Situated in a privileged location in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, the property is just 45 minutes from the city of Cusco and 5 minutes from the town of Pisac. Hacienda Sarapampa offers visitors the opportunity to have a unique cultural experience around traditions associated with corn production practices in an authentic and natural environment. On a tour with the owner, the visitor will appreciate how the development of the haciendas in the Sacred Valley was predominantly for agricultural use, focusing on the production of corn, potatoes and other crops. The farms conditioned the social and political life in Cusco in the 16th century. During the 18th century, large estates or haciendas were formed until their dismemberment during the Agrarian Reform in the 20th century. Hacienda Sarapampa has over 3,000m2 of green areas and spaces for exclusive events in perfect communion with agricultural traditions, creating a unique experience in an unforgettable setting. Dedicated to agricultural production for three generations, Hacienda Sarapampa is a family business that focuses primarily on the production of Giant White Corn. This is a unique corn variety characterized by its extraordinary size that grows only inside the boundaries of the Sacred Valley of Cusco. It was adapted to its specific conditions after an outstanding job of varietal selection during the Inca Empire. Little is known about the origins of this variety; however, it is a silent witness of the immense knowledge on agriculture reached by the ancient Peruvians.
After a bumpy ride down dirt roads we arrived at Hacienda Sarapampa and met by Victor and Stephen. Stephen previously played Bass guitar in a punk rock band called Anhedonia and both Victor and Stephen were very entertaining.. There was an intial tour of the farm and included a typical inca house with Guinea pigs. These are a Peruvian delicacy but fortunatley were NOT on the menu. Apparently the current owner lost the land in agricultural reforms 40 yrs ago. He had it handed back as it was too close to the river. Apparently he diverted the river himself to give him 40 acres of farmland ! Another review comlained that there were few people. There were 3 of us including our tour guide which meant the service was extraordinary. It was a small menu of beautiful locally grown food . We had Alpaca for the first time and trout bouth delicious. The starter was small but amazingly tasty. The dessert was pumpkin and corn drived and just deliciuos . One of the most intersting and pleasant meals we have ever had. Absolutley give it a try if you are in the area and can find it !

In 2011 we started a small organic farm. We produce many of our own vegetables, quinua and potatoes. Our farm is worked without agrochemicals or synthetic fertilizers, using many traditional techniques (plowing with oxen, rotating crops and biological controllers for pests & disease). A traditional Incan meal cooked on hot rocks, the Pachamanca Lunch includes a tour of our hotel, farm, Cañazo distillery and coffee roastery. Lunch includes chicken, pork, and lamb, potatoes, organic vegetables and salad, and chicha morada. It is served at covered picnic tables with views of the mountains, glaciers and archeological sites. We accommodate most dietary restrictions. For guests not staying with us, we ask for a 50% deposit in advance. Cancellations or modifications must be made before 8pm the day prior to the reservation, otherwise we charge the full amount of the deposit as a cancellation fee. Daily at 12 PM & 2:30 PM; $40USD (Adult), $30USD (Child); total duration: approx. 2 hours.
Come here to see all of the wonderful fresh and organic veggies that are served at the Albergue restaurant. The highlights are the Alpacas, who will eat clover leaves out of your hand!!

There are many terraces tobe seen throughout your trip thru the Sacred Valley. There were a critical element in the agricultural development of the area during Inca times. It is amazing that they have remained, but there is so much surface rock in the area, there was no reason to dismantle the terraces to get building stone--as has happened in many other historical sites worldwide. The terraces themselves are really attractive and add a "decorative" element to the hillsides. It must have been amazing to crops growing on them in ancient times. The planning and engineering that went into the construction of them (to make them so productive) is really a lasting tribute to the people.
