With more than 150 years of history, the Azorean Pineapple is a fruit of Protected Designation of Origin (PDO), produced exclusively on the island of São Miguel. Produced in a completely organic and natural way, the several producers allow tourists to visit the greenhouses and to know the process of plantation. They also have a store where people can buy homemade pineapple products. They also have a store dedicated to regional products and local handcrafts where they promote the exhibition of unique pieces of local artisans as well as a selection of some of the best products of the Region. The visit to the plantation is free and seeks to encourage and give knowledge to the community about the artisanal process of fruit production.
Pineapple plantation in Azores by Boa Fruta is a fantastic spot to come and explore the pineapple fields that have played host to botanists and agriculture lovers since it opened over 150 years ago. There are pineapple tastings and a gift shop with countless locally produced products such as jams, juices, and various desserts that all use this exceptional fruit as their main ingredient. This 4th generation family-owned and operated farm has steadily increased its yields and production with the continued demand both domestically and internationally for the unique flavor that the Azorean pineapples produce.
Teamwork is seen as a critical success factor, where the whole family is involved in the business for four generations.
