Taste the delicious Madeira Apples in a special Farm!
At the end of the last century, the family acquired a small property of around 1 hectare in the Madeira highlands. In 2004, this property began the conversion process to an organic farm. Since then, the family has essentially dedicated themselves to producing and selling the most delicious fruits the Madeira highlands have to offer. They are also cider producers across several generations, and believe the best way to perpetuate this tradition is by promoting its consumption — which is why cider is included in every experience.

Here’s what I want from apple tour: about 100 opportunities to take cute pictures of my kids, for them not to tell me they are bored, and if I come home with a few apples, great. So this farm is great for all of that, plus I didn’t expect the flower picking, cider pressing and berries. So this experience exceeded my expectations!

This was a really fun stop! We hit the area just in time for apple season and enjoyed picking apples of our own. Definitely worth your stop!
