La experiencia

The common house construction is a roundwood structure with a green roof, stone foundation and walls of wooden pallets stuffed with straw and plastered with clay.

This is where we have the shared kitchen and hang out space. We aim to get it ready for the winter as a cosy warm space.
We have more plastering to do, plus filling some last parts of the walls with straw.

It is a great building method that we are happy to teach.
We work 9-13h.

Programa detallado

This is a new Ecovillage project near Nelas, close to the Serra da Estrela Mountains, North of Central Portugal.
We are looking for people to help develop the project and also to join as resident members!
The project started in July 2022 and the vision is to create a place that enables a sustainable way of living from the land as a mutually supportive group.
The design includes a common area, with shared facilities, and individual houses suitable for 10 to 20 long term adult residents, plus their children.

The shaded camping spaces are under the tall trees by the river.
There are a few flat spaces for campervans, with some shade.

Shared facilities available:
Straw house common kitchen
Compost toilets
Basic solar shower
Solar phone and laptop charging
