My name is Ronnie. I started a farm in Feb, 2017 and have been learning and growing here with the land since than, so Its all a bit new to me but feels like home. I am originally from Israel but I have been living and travelling in different places around the world for the last 15+ years.
I fell in love with this land and with Portugal from the first moment and I hope that I can show you some of the thing that captured my heart, if you choose to come visit.
I speak very good English and some Portuguese- which I'm learning and hoping to be fluent, Spanish, French, Arabic and Hebrew :0) !
I would like to host you for at least 10 days and share the space with YOU- respectful, loving, nature vibing people.
The Farm is a new ecological- Permaculture farm in the region of Castelo Branco. The farm has 10 hectares of beautiful landscape, natural water sources, trees, meadows and wilderness. Although I have been living here since 2017- the farm has a lot of established fruit trees-cherry, apple, pears, plums, oranges, lemon, peach, figs and more, The Vegetable garden has many seasonal varieties and there's a lot of stuff that need to be done on daily bases everywhere! There's always something that you can make better!
In the last year and with a lot of help from friends and volunteers we established a beautiful Vegetable garden and some new garden beds ready to be used. The vine-yard looks great and the pond is full of fresh water to cool us down on hot summer days.
If you choose to visit the Farm- There's a nice clean indoor space for cooking and eating. There's lots of space for camping- either under the trees and stars or in the barn- if its rainy or cold (I have tents and some gear for sleeping if you need it) . Live-in vehicles are welcome. We will share vegetarian Breakfast and Dinner and share cocking and cleaning-up.
I would like to know you better and to share experiences and life. I love music although I don't really play any instrument,
we can have a camp fire and bit some drums at night or just go to a festa in the village on the weekends.
Every day for me is a new learning so don't expect me to have all the answers. Come join me and enjoy it with me!
One Love!

Break-fast is self-catered and dinner would be cooked and served to all together. Diet here is vegetarian and healthy! Tree fruits are free!
I have a big caravan/trailer for accommodation for an extra payment or spacial arrangement for skilled people! Talk to me to find out more!
The farm is near few villages that has small shop, cafes, restaurants, post office internet and ATM. There's lots of nature to explore around and the Serra Astrella is not far. I am still learning more about my area and i will be happy to do some exploring with you!
