The Apolloniatisses is the first and unique Agrotouristic Cooperative based in the remote mountainous village of Rhodes, Aegean Islands — founded by nine women who, for over fifteen years, have passionately kept alive the traditional flavours of their land. Creating pastries, oatmeal, trahana, jams, and spoon sweets exactly as they were once prepared, the women of Apolloniatisses have simultaneously stimulated the local economy, promoted local products, and achieved creative and financial independence without ever abandoning their home village.
These nine dynamic women joined forces in June 2005 to set up the first Agrotouristic Association of Women of the Dodecanese — a pioneering cooperative in every sense.
