Quinta do Freixo is a farm with an area of around 700 hectares, which has been producing organically for over 30 years and has now embarked on a more ambitious path in terms of environmental sustainability. The strategy essentially involves using living soil as a starting point, with a high photosynthetic capacity, a higher organic matter content and therefore a greater water retention capacity, in a concept known as sponge soil. In order to achieve this effect, as well as avoiding degrading agricultural techniques such as soil tillage or monocultures, we are looking for a diversity of species and activities capable of creating a more resilient ecosystem. This approach poses challenges from a commercial point of view, which is why the project also includes a tourism component that aims to be the base for the outflow of production. Quinta do Freixo seeks to integrate sectors of activity that generate a better environment and a better quality of life.
