Does anyone know the name of the cork farm/forest Rick uses for his Portugal trip? We'd like to do the same on our own trip later this Fall.

No idea, but if you can get there when the cork is being harvested, the tree trunks are a bright orange color right after the cork is harvested. Then there are the trucks carrying loads of the cork for processing.
Here’s are old thread to point you in the right direction.

Rovisco Garcia. It is also a winery.
