Spain: El Huerto de Lucas launched

A new organic location was launched in the San Lucas Street in Madrid  on 22 May 2014 – El Huerto de Lucas (The Garden of Lucas). Located in the heart of Chueca, El Huerto de Lucas is an organic food market with a broad offer on more than 450 m². The space also has an organic canteen, run by chef Javier Muñoz-Calero who announces a “honest kitchen with ingredients from the market". The meals made with organic ingredients can be enjoyed at El Huerto de Lucas (picture) or as take-away. 

A shop offers dry goods like cereals, packaged goods, preserves and a range of wine (picture). A bakery, a butchery, delicatessen, fruit and vegetables, poultry, a place for sprouts and juices, coffee and tea as well as an ice cream parlor give visitors a full organic food offer. Further seasonal products will be displayed like algae, mushrooms and chestnuts. There is also space for pop-up stores and a family friendly library.
 

The studio More&Co has designed the place free of toxics and as a healthy, natural island in the middle of Madrid. El Huerto de Lucas is open as follows: Monday to Saturday from 9:00 to 21:00., and Sunday from 9:00 to 17:00. More information is available here and on Facebook
