Organic Welcome Baskets

At Holidu, we're committed to helping you create memorable experiences for your guests from the moment they arrive. That's why we've partnered with APAEMA, a non-profit association dedicated to the protection and promotion of organic agriculture in Mallorca.

From 1 April 2024, you can purchase welcome baskets filled with local, organic products for your guests. Below you'll find answers to the most common questions about our organic welcome baskets.

What is APAEMA, and why does Holidu collaborate with them?

APAEMA is the Associació de Productors d'Agricultura Ecològica de Mallorca, a Mallorcan non-profit organisation focused on defending organic agriculture. They support the island's farmers through various initiatives, including a collective kitchen where members can produce higher-value products. Their partners' work protects the territory through farming practices that respect the land and supply quality, tasty, healthy, and sustainable local products.

Holidu collaborates with APAEMA because agricultural production and distribution accounts for approximately one-fifth of the carbon footprint generated by tourism. By partnering with this organisation, we support sustainable practices and help introduce guests to the island through its authentic gastronomy and the people behind local products.

Why offer organic welcome baskets?

A welcome basket is a thoughtful way to start your guests' stay on a positive note. It serves multiple purposes:

• Raises awareness of how food choices connect to climate impact
• Introduces guests to the island through local products and producers
• Supports Mallorcan farmers and sustainable agriculture
• Adds a memorable, personal touch to the guest experience

This Holidu-host initiative is grounded in our local presence in Mallorca and represents a meaningful way to contribute to sustainable tourism.

What products do the baskets contain?

All products in the baskets are sourced from farmers associated with APAEMA, ensuring quality, authenticity, and sustainability.
