Descrição
I moved onto the Quinta about three years ago and have already restored and moved into one of the houses that was damaged in the 2017 wildfire. There is another house still to restore as well as several outbuildings and stables. We now have a small flock of sheep, chickens, and have established a productive organic vegetable garden.
We have an abundance of mature fruit (cherry, plum, apple, pear, pomegranate, fig, orange, lemon etc.) and nut trees, around 100 olive trees and over a kilometer of vines.
I really enjoy having volunteers to stay and am very grateful for the extra help they provide. There is some fencing to do, building restoration work, and forestry work, as well as the normal day to day duties of looking after the land, animals and garden etc.
Long term positions are possible for awake individuals/families who are interested in joining me to start a small sustainable and self sufficient community.
Easy going hard working fun loving conscious vibe.

Somewhere in the outback of Portugal you will find the old traditional villages and towns. In the area of Oliveira do Hospital are a lot of farms that still can be seen. It feels like being in a world of 100 years ago in an area full of nature.
