The Galician cider apple arrives at the Mercado de la Cosecha this week accompanied by Maeloc Galician cider

CommitmentCSR @en

The Mercado de la Cosecha pop-up store is reaching its last weeks of activity in A Coruña, and does so by paying homage to the harvesting season. This week, simultaneously to the apple harvest in most of Galicia, Maeloc cider takes over the store to present its different varieties and to raise awareness of its research projects and support for an ecological production of its products.

Galicia is the main producer of cider apples in Spain and the company Customdrinks from Chantada (Lugo) has backed the production of cider within our region, always working side by side with the producers from who they obtain the raw material. The Corporación Hijos de Rivera company collects apples from over 1,000 native farmers.

In recent years, there has been a firm commitment towards ecological production,encouraging farming within those parameters in order to make ecological ciders which are 100% from ecological Galician apples. . Besides this, the Maeloc project, which carries out research and cataloguing activities of the different varieties of Galician apples within our region, has been set up.

All this effort in production and innovation has given rise to a wide range of Maeloc products such as natural, sweet or dry ciders and, for the first time in Spain, pear, blackberry and strawberry flavoured ciders.

What is the Mercado de la Cosecha Pop-Up Store?

The Mercado de la CosechaPop-Up store is a project driven by Corporación Hijos de Rivera, Gadis and R whose main objective is to promote the socioeconomic development of Galicia and the sustainability of rural areas. A temporary concept remaining open only until the beginning of October, the shop will serve to spread and promote exemplary initiatives stemming from the countryside, transmitting their philosophy and most authentic flavour to the public.

 Every week until the beginning of October, the store will change its image and protagonist. The store has already seen Cortes de Muar cheeses, Ecoceltaearthworm compost, the free-range eggs, and jams of Pazo de Vilane, the oils of Olei, the games of Buxaina, Daveiga mariñeira biscuits, the cream biscuits of Granxa Maruxa, the contemporary basket-making of Idoia Cuesta, and the ecological cheeses, yoghurts and milk of Arquiexal, all of them innovative initiatives that are worth sharing.

Next week, the Mercado de la Cosecha will see the grapes used for Ponte da Boga wines (30 September-5 October). The last week (7-12 October) will be a round-up of all the products.
