  About this garden

 The story 
-----------

 This woodland garden takes the visitor to a remote area of fruit production in Spain. The producers are part of a cooperative that once built a small railway station to transport their produce to the wholesale market. The families work together to make the station a vibrant place, maintaining planted containers around the building and surrounding areas. In this garden, orange, olive, lemon, pistachio and pomegranate trees flourish.
