SUSTAINABILITY – FROM FARM TO FORK

Casa Velha is supplied with the finest vegetables and herbs by Q Farm, Quinta do Lago's vegetable garden located in the heart of the resort, that provides seasonal ingredients for the resort's restaurants all year round. Aside from Q Farm, Casa Velha sources amazing ingredients from local suppliers such as natural golden honey, fresh oysters, fish, and various other ingredients that contribute to the chef's innovative cuisine.

LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS

Inspired by its deep appreciation for the local community, Casa Velha has collaborated with Loulé Design Lab, an organization that brings together artisans from the municipality of Loulé to achieve the perfect symbiosis between design and cuisine. Loulé Design Lab, creates unique, customized pieces while conserving natural resources and enhancing the value of our in-house products served at our restaurant's tables. Many of these creative works are currently in use at Casa Velha, which hosts many of Chef Alípio's culinary creations.
