  Description

  We are a family of 5 members, Karol, the father of the family, agronomist and administrator of the ranch, Loreto, full time mother and veterinarian, we have 3 young children, Vedran, Jure and Stanko of 9, 7 and 4 years old respectively, we are located in a rural area, in the commune of San Gregorio, Magallanes, Chile.
  We used to live at Estancia Cerro Negro, near puerto Natales, but we moved to another farm, but do pretty much the same here at estancia "La Portada"
  We live in a livestock ranch where we work in activities mainly related to sheep, surrounded by incredible landscapes and nature at its best, we consider ourselves fortunate to be able to live the life we lead, among the activities we do are the care of the chickens and maintenance of different areas within the farm.
  We try to lead a friendly life with nature, trying to teach our children the importance of respecting life and the environment around us. In order to give back to the earth what it gives us, we have a composting system, and we try to recycle as much as possible, having still a long way to go.
  We would love to be able to give knowledge to anyone who would like to come and learn about what we do here, as well as to receive and learn from those who would like to come and help us and share with us their knowledge
