Today we want to talk and tell you about one of the discoveries of our founder, Estefanía Grandío. Cucumbi Farm, a place where she went to enjoy with her family, where she found comfort, peace, and sustainability all in one place.

Cucumbi is designed with a rustic and soft environment. How did the idea of creating a 100% sustainable space as a guest house come about?

   This property belonged to my father and his wife, and for a long time they struggled to keep it organic as their professions consumed most of their time. Isabel, my father's wife, is a musician, a lover of plant-based food, and as a fervent advocate of conscious consumption, she passed on her passion to us. In her time they started selling organic eggs and vegetables next to a Bed and Breakfast with only 5 rooms. After 16 years in Barrancão they decided to move to the Alentejo coast and it was then that my husband Tozé and I decided to buy their property. He always wanted to be a farmer and in 2018 he was able to fulfil his dream and from that moment on he convinced me to embark on this project together with our friend Fernando Oliveira and with the incredible aesthetics and work of Sofia Albuquerque Cucumbi was born...and from there we knew where we were headed.
