Descrição
Hi everyone , my name is Gary and my wife is Shireen 😍
We have a small Quinta (sml farm) in central Portugal near Gois & Arganil and we just ❤ botanical Herbs , nature and always Portugal.
The surroundings are stunning, and a very unique part of the Portugal central mountain region , ..... and Your adventures can start here
The Quinta had been abandoned for many decades but we are slowly restoring it back repairing walls ,water courses and converting overgrown terraces into productive growing beds were we grow many botanical, medical and tea infusions such as Wormwood ,Mugwort ,Mullien and Lemon balm.... just to name a few .☕
Our farm is home to many species of woodland birds, insects and also to all sorts of mammals ,reptiles ,amphibians and together we share this small corner of this bio eco system....it paradise !
There are birds of pray , eagles, and lizards scamper along our walls; while snakes avoid us and slip away through the grass. while newts, frogs and toads enjoy life in our pond and tanks .
*Please note ; that some of the hillsides, and terraces we work on are steep and very challenging ! *

- Who are we looking for -👀

We are looking for people that are independent , enjoy being around nature 🌿 proactive, honest, hardworking, and genuinely interested in helping us.
Hopefully you will be a fun person to work with, with an attitude of just getting the job done ! and that you are enjoying your life to its full ..... is this YOU ! 🙏

In return we can teach you all about how we cultivate botanical herbs 🌱 that we grow in these extreme mountains conditions , their uses and benefits that they have , as well as general maintenance to our Quinta such as repairing stone walls , fixing lavadas , building growing beds, forest management and so much more.....👍
