Dates and palm trees: the prickliest part of the farm
Palm trees are part of the landscape at Viva la Finca, and some of them give dates in season.
A prickly plant
The plant that gives the dates is very prickly. Pruning it is not for everyone: it takes care and the right tools. Claudio has a workshop equipped with everything needed.
Palm trees and landscape
The palm trees frame the wooden cabin and the sea view. After rain, sometimes a rainbow appears between them.
Dates at the table
When there are dates, they go straight to the farm's table.
