After 250 years in our family, Fornalha (tradicional mediterranean multi-orchard family farm) was bankrupting. Leave it? Sell it? NO. These are our roots and so valuable: high quality raw materials, wonderfull nature and weather, motivated and dreamy team... this a EDEN! So we just needed a different paradigma, a sustainable one, to save the past knowledge, build our own present and provide a healthy farm for the next generation.

We decided to implement a holistic and multi-business model (instead of a specialized one), using each resource for the best suitable purpose (raw materials, buildings, ourselfs, weather), and finding a compromise between economical needs, high quality standards, environmental values and our own personal satisfaction and hapiness.
Naturaly three areas come up: 

RAW MATERIALS

SUSTAINABLE EARTH PRODUCTIONS

Local varieties adapted to water scarcity, a Natural Orchard style Managment, makes our Figs, Almonds, Carobs, Quince, Pomegranade, Lemon, Orange, Olive, Apricot taste incredible good.
And also, ecological sea salt from our own milenar atlantic ocean saltpond.
