Description
We are a young family from Germany: Johanna, 30, master farmer,
Ferdinand, 28, farmer and our two children Yuri (6) and Luis (2). From January 2024 we will live in Portugal and manage our 30 hectares of land there, of which 3 hectares are olive trees/agroforestry system, 5 hectares of fields and a lot of pastureland.
From 2024 we wish to produce organic pestos, spreads and more. For this purpose, we grow the vegetables ourselves and process them ourselves. We will plant many trees to build a diverse agroforestry system. At the beginning we only have a few chickens for our own use. Next year we want to build a flock of sheep and produce cheese in the long term.
Somos uma jovem família da Alemanha: Johanna, 30 anos, mestre agricultora,
Ferdinand, 28 anos, agricultor e nossos dois filhos Yuri (6) e Luis (2). A partir de Janeiro de 2024 vamos viver em Portugal e aí gerir os nossos 30 hectares de terreno, dos quais 3 hectares são oliveiras/sistema agroflorestal, 5 hectares de campos e muitas pastagens.
A partir de 2024 produziremos pestos orgânicos, pastas para barrar e muito mais. Para isso, nós mesmos cultivamos os vegetais e os processamos. Plantaremos muitas árvores para construir um sistema agroflorestal diversificado. No próximo ano queremos construir um rebanho de ovelhas e produzir queijo a longo prazo.
Wir sind eine junge Familie aus Deutschland: Johanna, 30, Landwirtschaftsmeisterin,
Ferdinand, 28, Landwirt und unsere beiden Kinder Yuri (6) und Luis (2). Ab Januar 2024 leben wir in Portugal und bewirtschaften dort unsere 30 ha Land, davon 3ha Olivenbäume/Agroforstsystem, 5 ha Acker und viel Weidefläche.
Ab 2024 produzieren wir biologisch hergestellte Pestos, Aufstriche und mehr. Hierfür bauen wir das Gemüse selbst an und verarbeiten es auch selber. Wir werden viele Bäume pflanzen, um ein vielfältiges Agroforstsystem aufzubauen. Im kommenden Jahr wollen wir uns eine Schafherde aufbauen und langfristig Käse herstellen.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
In addition to working in agriculture, we want to make our country an oasis for ourselves and our environment. We want to be largely self-sufficient. Baking bread in the wood oven, campfire with music, creating a swimming lake and interacting with the people from the village. All of this gives us a lot of joy and combines work and hobby.
There are also monthly festivals in the village where you can get to know the regional cuisine, music and mentality of the people in Portugal.
Neben der Arbeit in der Landwirtschaft wollen wir unser Land zu einer Oase für uns und unsere Umwelt machen. Wir werden uns größtenteils selbstversorgen. Brot backen im Holzofen, Lagerfeuer mit Musik, das Anlegen eines Badesees und das Miteinander mit den Menschen aus dem Dorf. All das bereitet uns viel Freude und vereint Beruf und Hobby.Im Dorf selbst befinden sich zwei Cafés und ein Flussstrand der im Sommer zum Baden einlädt. Zudem finden im Dorf monatlich Feste statt, bei denen die regionalen Küche, sowie Musik und Mentalität der Menschen in Portugal kennengelernt werden können.
Além de trabalhar na agricultura, queremos fazer do nosso país um oásis para nós e para o meio ambiente. Seremos principalmente autossuficientes. Assar pão no forno a lenha, fazer fogueiras com música, criar um lago para nadar e conviver com as gentes da aldeia. Tudo isso nos dá muita alegria e combina trabalho e hobby.
Na aldeia também acontecem festivais mensais onde poderá conhecer a gastronomia regional, a música e a mentalidade do povo português.
