Description
I’d be grateful for your help with th harvests and packing (as im leaving), and to share in the care of this beautiful quinta (farm/smallholding), 10 minutes walk from the village of Benfeita.
In return there's the opportunity to learn about off grid living, wild food and other useful skills, to immerse yourself in nature and deepen your awareness and practice of concious care of our precious Mother Earth
If you’d seriously like and intend to help, you’re very welcome.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
The local villagers are warm hearted welcoming folk and my friends, so you can meet them and enjoy and learn from their agricultural, cultural, language roots, much of which they still live and honor. I also love to practice languages, and you can learn from the land through work experience and from skills that I offer - earth care, sustainable living, growing food organically, wild food, preserving, clay render, natural paint.....

Autres infos...
The village of Benfeita is just 10 minutes walk from here with very friendly local people, a little shop, post office, the popular outdoor cafe in the square and a river beach for bathing in summer.
From here old stone walkways link rivers, waterfalls, villages and off grid dwellers, interesting friendly folk forming a spontaneous mostly off grid creative community drawn here from all over the world.
There are local markets, a very popular alternative school, musical events ….opportunities to meet interesting people.
We've qualified as an 'Eco Fregesia', (eco local region).
Obviously bring clothes suitable for work and weather.
Food here is vegetarian, mostly organic, local, wild and simply delicious.
Please only bring organic washing, hair, teeth and skin products as it all goes into the earth and river.
I ask you please not to smoke here. Instead to let the fresh mountain air and our engagement with nature soothe and intoxicate us.
2 dear cats and 2 dear sheep also live here.
Read all this again before you come to be sure to b well prepared.

I totally recommend her.
She chose to follow me rather than count the hours.as she became accustomed she often led the way. I'd come in exhausted to find shed taken care of the cats, hens, got wood, lit the fire,started making supper and preparing preserves, and to finish the evening she'd clear and wash… read more
