»PRI MINKI« VISITOR FARM
At the farm, you can be served a wide range of home-made aperitifs (e.g. bilberry, walnut or plum brandy, etc.), herbal infusions, fruit juices, Turkish coffee and white or red wine. If you feel like having something to eat as well, they will be happy to prepare a selection of cold cuts comprised of home-made dried meat products. These as well as cracklings, various types of pâté and spreads can also be bought in their shop. They can also provide you with stores to take home (e.g. wild garlic in pumpkin seed oil or olive oil, pickle, mixed salad, plum jam), and in summer months also with seasonal vegetables from their own garden. The shop is open on request.
Having inspired the name of the visitor farm, the owner Minka is best known to guests from near and far for the incredibly wide range of sweets. If you order in advance, she can make anything from apple or cheese strudel, gibanica cake, sweet cheese dumplings, to gingerbread biscuits, varied tea biscuits, potica cake and more. On Saturday mornings, you can treat yourselves to Minka’s sweets at the local market in the centre of Dobrna next to the municipal building. Occasionally you can also buy a new variety of sweets made on a whim.

ŠUMEJ OLD KITCHEN
Šumej Homestead in Brdce nad Dobrno is one of the few small farms in the municipality which has preserved part of the architectural and cultural heritage of our ancestors. The oldest part of the homestead is the old kitchen, its antiquity proven by its smoke-stained kitchen window and wooden entrance hinges. On entering the house, it seems as if time had stopped a long time ago, and we experience accommodation as it was three hundred years ago.
