DDPF Luisa Almeida
If there's one thing I value, it's a good diet and I strongly believe that the way food is produced has a huge impact on our bodies. I'd rather eat less, but invest in better quality, than the opposite. I've always tried to find producers close to everywhere I've lived, who I trust completely, and I really think this is the right (and even futuristic) way to look at food - local and conscious.
If I lived in the Lisbon area, I'm sure I'd be in good hands with the baskets from Quinta do Arneiro. And I'm very happy to introduce Luísa, the woman who transformed a wonderful farm, in the family since 1967, into an organic farming project, with a market and restaurant included. Maybe this interview will make you want to try Quinta do Arneiro's products or even pay them a visit, to get to know the project better. I hope so!
