We have a small farm (20.000m2) in the countryside 30 km outside of Lisbon, near Barreiro, Portugal.
The area of the house and lawn is supposed to be used for mindfulness, yoga and non-violent communication practice groups or events in the future. A geodesic dome was built but we still need some construction and maintenance around it.
We have a highway close by, so we are working on a solution to reduce the sound impact as soon as possible, help for that is very welcome!
Biological gardening for internal use is very important to us, the vegetable garden and fruit trees are already planted but it needs to be maintained.
Usually we have harvest vegetables and fruits and some additional products can be bought from the neighbour to support regional and seasonal shopping, other items of food and supplies can be bought on the supermarket.
We also like to help a sanctuary for animals that belongs to Margarida, she is also a member of our project and visits the place every day.
Luis and Silvia are the owners, they don't live on location, but they will receive you and give all the help and directions they can and visit you from time to time.
If you are a smoker please refrain from smoking near the house and please be careful and keep the buts with you.

Most of the times the workawayers like to spend their evenings together playing games and music or talking.
You can use your leisure time to discover the area around.
