Avocados in the north of Tenerife: fruit from the farm
The avocado is one of the fruits that grow at Viva la Finca. It has been grown in the Canary Islands for a long time, and in the north of Tenerife it finds a friendly climate.
A patient tree
The avocado tree takes a while to give fruit, and the fruit takes a while to ripen. It is picked hard and ripens afterwards, at home.
On the farm
It lives alongside bananas, papayas, mangoes, guavas and passion fruit. Each has its season, so the farm never gives the same thing two months in a row.
At the table
With a little salt, on toast or with the tomatoes from the garden: simple and from here.
