From the heart of Ria de Aveiro, SaliGreen by Horta dos Peixinhos is a pioneer in professional Salicornia (Samphire) production in Portugal. Originally a salt production site since 1891, Horta dos Peixinhos has been producing Salicornia since 2015.
Salicornia is organically produced with no environmental impact and complies with all Food Safety & Hygiene requirements.

Our team, which includes biologists and agronomist engineers, is always present in the Salicornia fields, conducting extensive tests on the water and the plants themselves, as well as assisting with their care and management.
