The Story
Why Soilless?
Urla's soil is reserved for olives, vines and herbs. For the food on our retreat guests' plates, we chose a different path: soilless, water-based, fully controlled growing.
In our hydroponic system, lettuce, rocket, basil, cress, coriander and microgreens grow 365 days a year, independent of season. 90% less water, zero chemicals, three times faster harvest than conventional farming.
Now we're taking this system beyond the retreat. We're about to supply Urla's gastronomic world — its restaurants, cafés and boutique accommodations — with the same daily-fresh produce.

The System
How Does It Work?
Hydroponic farming feeds plant roots with a water-nutrient solution in a closed-loop system. No soil, no pesticides, no large plots of land needed.
Nutrient Solution
All the minerals and nutrients plants need are mixed into water at precise ratios. pH and EC values are continuously monitored.
Closed-Loop Circulation
Water circulates within the system — no waste. 90% less water use compared to conventional farming.
Controlled Growth
Temperature, humidity and light are optimised. Season is irrelevant — fresh basil in the depths of winter, cool-weather greens in summer heat.
Daily Harvest
Produce reaches your table or restaurant the same day it's harvested. No cold chain, no transit stress. Delivery within Urla.
