The Green Guide
Welcome to the new Green Guide… Andalucia’s first guide to sustainable living
OFTEN led to believe that Andalucia is a poor region with everything deep-fried, and where fresh vegetables are unavailable, down on the ground, this simply is not true.
Aside from the incredible Iberican pork products from Huelva and Cordoba, there are fabulous cheeses, including many from Ronda, and some amazing fresh fish.
But most of all – as anyone will know who has lived here awhile – it is perfectly possible to get incredible fruit and vegetables. In addition to fresh wild asparagus and abundant fig trees and grapevines, there are numerous good organic producers, though few are known and even fewer advertise.
Produced by the Olive Press’s sister company Luke Stewart Media, 20,000 copies of the guide are being distributed around Andalucia.
The aim of The Green Guide 2008 is to provide a comprehensive list of addresses for people who are seeking anything from sustainable wood supplies to green architects or a place to buy natural olive oil soaps.
Turn the guide pages and discover a flavour of alternative Andalucia, with words on organic food from Phil Spears, a cautionary tale from Driving Over Lemons author Chris Stewart, plus a feature by Andalucia’s most famous walking guide, Guy Hunter Watts.
Looking ahead, there are already plans to make the 2009 edition even bigger, better and more comprehensive.
Please get in touch with greenguide@theolivepress.es or call 951 166 060 for more details.
