WHERE TO BUY | 03. QUINTA DO MELRO

Quinta do Melro was born from the dream and resilience of a couple of Angolan returnees who arrived in their homeland poorer than when they left and with 2 young children to raise.
They grabbed the live birds and ran with them all over the northeast of Trás-os-Montes. Bird by bird that they sold, they were able to raise their children and save up for the realization of a bigger dream. They acquired a pine forest and their dreams began to take shape; They exchanged and joined lands until the current size of the farm. The children grew up, graduated, got married and made their lives far from their dreams but not here. Thus, just like the children, the birds, the olive trees, the chestnut trees, the vegetable gardens and the customers were part of the family.

Due to their age and a violent robbery here on the farm, this couple challenged their daughter and son-in-law to come and pursue this dream, keeping theirs: Marisqueira Novo Mariano
We came, today we are the owners of the farm and we can say that, what the farm was, is and will continue to be.
To maintain this tradition, Quinta do Melro is a space for nourishment and communion, combining the birds that live here, in open-air enclosures, with the organic trademark, the Extra Virgin Olive Oil, with a warm welcome, professionalism, and quality so that those who choose to purchase our products can feel in every nanosecond all the dedication and love that we put into our birds and our olive oil.
It will continue to be this way because we have added to all this a tourism project that is in the development phase and that aims to maintain not only the essence of this farm as a place that is a source of joy, that nourishes, cares for, feeds, brings health and well-being by keeping birds and progressing as an olive oil brand, but also integrating all this into a much grander project of bringing to the northeast and in particular to our municipality, through a hotel unit, the full recognition of the value that it, the northeast of Trás-os-Montes and it, Quinta do Melro, have.
