Our Lands
Our biodynamic agriculture is certified by Demeter. We use ancient sustainable techniques and follow the astrological calendar to grow and harvest the crops. Plants, animals and human beings are integrated and considered as a whole, creating a fertility closed-loop which gives unique characteristics to our plants and extracts.
Our main Lands are located in two different Areas:
Finca Serrata (Villena)
In Villena we have more than 2,000 hectares of Mediterranean forests under strict biological control. Our lands are characterized by dry and sandy soils with some silt. The agricultural processes are carried out within a biosafety framework and under the strict demands of biodynamic cultivation certified by Demeter.
Finca Alberquilla (Moratalla)
It is located in the farthest northwestern area of the Murcia Region, popularly known as the “orchard of Spain” for its rich soil. We own 1,000 hectares to cultivate olive and almond trees. As an example, we cultívate below products on those áreas:
- Olive
- Olive varieties: Arbequina, Picual, Grosal, Cornicabra, Farga and Cuquillo
