    Description

    We are a group of people who loves nature, animals and permaculture.
    We are in the heart of Douro surronded by amazing views, nature.
    One of our objectives is to allow nature to prosper, to practice a regenerative and biological agriculture, applying the principles and designs of Permaculture, to intervene as little as possible in the environment in an organic and non-harmful way to nature.
    We are happy and interested in receiving short/medium/long term volunteers to help us with all the Permaculture implementation, from the garden and composting fast or slow, to planting trees, taking care of the little pigs, cleaning the land, firewood and wood, cutting dead trees, growing mushrooms, etc.
