"Come and Experience Village Life with Us! I am Jessica. After leaving the hustle and bustle of city life and my career in accounting, I decided to reconnect with my roots in my village, Artez. This journey led me to create the Al-Zouroua Project, a unique initiative that combines organic vertical farming with heritage preservation. Our mission is to practice sustainability in everyday life while reviving the charm of traditional rural living. At Al-Zouroua, we invite you to step back in time and rediscover heritage in an atmosphere of comfort and tranquility. Our base is a beautifully preserved traditional Lebanese house that is over 200 years old. Here, you can engage in traditional activities, delve into our rich history, and savor the most delicious local dishes, prepared by the women of the village. Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature and history. Enjoy scenic hikes through the majestic mountains, explore nearby villages, and uncover the hidden stories of this enchanting region."
