Description
Hi :)
David and Patrick here - we are revitalising 5 hectares here in central Portugal.
This area - near Aldeia de Santa Margarida, Castelo Branco region - is home to a vibrant international community growing alongside the deep cultural heritage of the Portuguese countryside.
In a world where the nervous system and body are under constant pressure we have undertaken to create a space where health is the result of an integrated lifestyle. Clean water, clean food, clear communication and meaningful connection.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
There are ample opportunities to connect with the diverse and highly active international community in this area through events which are hosted all throughout this region. Additionally, the rural Portuguese are still connected to foodcycle based celebrations, you may be in luck to catch a harvest or seasonal festival.
We have an integrated knowledge of medicinal plants and a grounded psychospiritual framework for recovery and healing - we are always happy to exchange ideas and information as we sit around healthy, well prepared meals (have I mentioned we are great cooks?)
Aide
The help is practical and varied depending on the season, including gardening, land care, DIY projects, and general help around the place.
We usually ask for 3 to 5 hours per day, 4 days a week, with a relaxed and respectful rhythm.
This land is being shaped as a place for deep connection with nature, plants, food, and intentional ways of living.
Skills we appreciate include gardening, permaculture, DIY experience, cooking, herbal or plant knowledge, and general practical problem solving. A valid driver’s license is helpful, though not essential. Attitude, self motivation, and respect for the space matter most.
Langues
Langues parlées
Anglais: Courant
Espagnol: Débutant
Portugais: DébutantCet hôte propose un échange linguistique
English is spoken as primary. We are dedicated in learning Portuguese and Spanish though at present our level is fairly basic, so as long as tasks can be communicated in English we are more than happy for language exchange
Hébergement
In exchange for your help, we offer simple accommodation, fast and reliable WiFi, shared meals made with high quality organic food which is not strictly vegetarian or vegan, and a cosy communal space for eating, resting, and connecting. The setting is quiet and rural, best suited to people who enjoy meaningful work and contributing to something long term rather than a retreat or party environment.
Autres infos...
This area is home to many lakes, community markets, beautiful villages, and warmhearted people.
We have a small but growing library of stimulating books.
We are committed to full body health and have an assortment of functional strength building exercise and flexibility aids in the communal space.
We are happy to include you in the productive yet peaceful rhythm we have created for ourselves.

We have an excellent, partially shaded and accessible parkup spot for small to midsized live-in vehicles.
Possibilité d'accueillir les animaux
We have a dog and two cats. Our dog is a little weary of other dogs entering her space. If you have a dog we may need to check compatibility of our companions before confirming that the situation is suitable for everyone.
