Carretera San Prudencio, 0 S/N, 20808 Getaria, Guipúzcoa, Spain

Aroa farm, a 10-minute walk from the middle of Getaria, is a farm unlike any other in the entire country of Spain.

But their focus is on perfecting and rescuing produce typical to Basque Country, such as the guisante lágrima, or tear pea. This exquisite, labor-intensive vegetable can retail for as much as $350 a pound. Explore the farm, where they also have a tasting room and Jaime is almost always around to chat.
