If there's one thing I value, it's good nutrition and I truly believe that the way food is produced has a huge impact on our body. I prefer to eat less, but invest in better quality, than the opposite. I've always tried to find producers close to every place I've ever lived, who I fully trust, and I really think this is the most correct (and even futuristic) way of seeing food - local and conscious.

If you lived in the Lisbon area, I'm sure you'd be in good hands with the Quinta do Arneiro baskets. And I am very pleased to be able 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. Perhaps this interview will make you want to try Quinta do Arneiro products or even pay them a visit, to learn more about the project. I hope so!
