In Halkidiki, Macedonia, the Agios Antonios Women’s Agricultural Cooperative was founded in June 1999 as the first women’s cooperative in the Prefecture of Thessaloniki. For over 25 years, these dedicated women have preserved and shared the authentic culinary traditions of their community through exceptional artisan products.
The cooperative’s coffee and sweet shop, Cafeglikopolio, is located 35 km from Thessaloniki at the most beautiful spot of the village of Agios Antonios — from where you can enjoy views of Mount Olympus and the seasonal colours of nature while enjoying coffee, spoon sweets, traditional perek, galaktoboureko, pita, ravani, and other treats.
