    Descrição

    We are a family of three living on a small farm. We have all kinds of animals to help us keep the farm "trimmed". We have a vegetable garden we eat off, the whole year. We have lots of different fruittrees, and we are experimenting to make a food forrest. As we get older we need some help to keep everything in order and realize some new projects.
    We have a Holliday home we rent out in the season and will be your accommodation when you decide to stay with us in winter time. During the summer you can stay in a big tent ( you can stand straight in it) with real beds and an outdoor bathroom/ kitchen facility , fully equipped. You will have this all to your self. See pictures.

    We are one kilometer from the center of Cercal do Alentejo . That is a 3-minute drive and a 20-minute walk. The central point in Cercal is the roundabout with a square where the main restaurants and cafes are located. The village has several supermarkets , a pharmacy , a bank , a post office and several other shops.
    The area is known for walking/hiking and cycling. Two of the "Rota Vicentina" trails pass right in front of our Quinta.
    We have two mountainbikes witch can be used.
    The Atlantic Ocean is a 15 minutes drive away. There are busses to Vila nova de Milfontes, Porto Covo and Sines witch are villages on the seaside with all kinds of activities. Surfing, Kayaking, boat trips and of course the beaches and swimming.

    We had some volunteers the last couple of years and are very enthusiastic about the people we meet. It was great to work, eat and "play" together and get things done. Lots of energie going round. We are looking to repeat the experience. At week days we start at 9.00 and work until 13.00 (with coffee break of course) One of us cooks for the rest and lunch will be served at about 13.00. In the afternoons every body does what he or she likes to do as in the weekends.
