We had the most amazing experience with Jose. First, he showed us the farm and told us about their planting methods and the many interesting plants they grow, including orange, lemon, carob, olive, peanut, chickpeas and cork tree just to name a few. We got to feed the donkeys (they are super cute) with aubergines and tomatoes! After this, we picked oranges for ourselves - it was an absolutely lovely experience. But after this came the best part. We were seated in the garden (which was teeming with magnificent monarch butterflies), and Jose served us many different types of incredibly delicious tapas. He is an excellent cook with lots of attention to detail. We had fresh lemonade, delicious homemade jams, refreshing cold tomato soup, figs, melons, cherry tomatoes, and cheese. Apart from the cheese, everything came from the farm, which made the whole experience even better. This was our best experience in Portugal. Jose is an excellent host, very friendly and communicative, and clearly proud of the farm (as he should be!). Wholeheartedly recommend!!
