Enjoy a Green Salt experience in Évora with a farm visit!

Discover how aromatic herbs can transform flavor during the Green Salt Experience, inspired by the book Sal Verde and deeply rooted in Alentejo’s culinary traditions.

This immersive experience highlights the importance of aromatic herbs in Alentejan cuisine, where they enhance flavor while naturally reducing the use of salt and sugar, and bring vibrant aromas to the final dishes.

The experience begins with a guided visit to the farm, where you’ll be introduced to several aromatic herbs and their culinary applications. Many of these herbs will later feature in the dishes served during the meal. Along the way, you’ll learn how herbs are harvested, dried, and preserved without losing quality, as well as how to use them both fresh and dried.

You’ll visit the natural drying greenhouse, processing area, and packaging space to understand the full journey from plant to product.

The experience concludes with a private, relaxed meal, served either under the farm’s largest ash tree or in the cozy nursery. Guests will enjoy a selection of herb-based dishes, including starters, light main courses, and desserts, all prepared using the farm’s aromatic plants.

The meal is accompanied by a herbal infusion and homemade lemonade. Local white and rosé wine can be added upon request and is charged separately.

This is a unique sensory and culinary experience, perfect for food lovers, nature enthusiasts, and travelers seeking an authentic taste of rural Alentejo — occasionally shared with the friendly presence of the farm dog or peacock.

This is a truly wonderful place, filled with sunlight and immersed in the natural fragrance of aromatic plants. It is an experience that truly engages all the senses. I highly recommend a visit, as well as the incredible products available. I plan to return whenever possible, whether for future events or simply to restock my aromatics.

Fantastic tour! André Marcos

Excellent organic products with outstanding quality and beautiful design. The aroma of the naturally produced teas and infusions speaks for itself — I have never found products of such high quality elsewhere, and they never disappoint. An easy choice both for personal use and as a gift. I purchased gift hampers for Christmas and birthdays, and they make wonderful presents! I have also attended two workshops on the farm and highly recommend them. The team is fantastic and extremely attentive.
