A unique countryside destination for hands-on Algarvian Fire Cooking, the Aloe Vera Experience, private Fire Feast parties, animal partner activities, farm-to-table dining and inclusive farm days shaped by sustainable farming and accessibility.
Set within nine hectares of organic Algarve countryside near Paderne, Algarve Biofarm is a working biofarm specialising in aromatics, aloe vera, seasonal fruit and vegetables — creating farm-to-table food, natural workshops, private events, retreats, bespoke weddings and authentic Algarve experiences.
We grow many of our own ingredients on the farm — herbs, aromatics, aloe vera, fruit and vegetables — and weave them through everything we serve. Whether you come for our Algarvian Fire Cooking Experience, the Aloe Vera Experience, a private Algarve Fire Feast, a wedding or a longer stay at Casa Vermelha or Casa de Aloe, the farm itself is the experience.
Hands-on, welcoming days shaped by what's growing. Cook over fire, work with fresh aloe, or bring your people together for a private feast.
