Dettagli del programma

Our activities here in Alto Alentejo really turn around three different projects:
1) Organic olive production on a 6 ha orchard to produce extra virgin olive oil (year by year)
2) Renovation of our traditional old mill storage house (ongoing renovation works with no time limit 😁)
3) Maintenance and development of 2 ha of rustic land into an innovative type of food forest
Volunteers are welcome to learn, share and engage in all three projects. Scale and scope of activities within the three projects depend highly on seasons, internal planning and priorities.

We are mainly looking for volunteers with proven experience in any (or all :-)) of the above-mentioned areas.

Regole

We live a simple life on our Quinta in PT and like to host people who share the same idea of a simple lifestyle. It is a pleasure for us to spend time with people from all over the world, but we also like to have time for ourselves. As our days are quite busy, it is important for us to find a good balance here. As said, days can get quite exhausting as the majority of our day to day work is manual labour, so we like our hosted people to know that - as much as that we stick to our 5\5-"agreement". We are not vegetarians or vegans but we like to think that our nutrition is quite balanced and healthy - as we consume a lot of the seasonal vegetables and fruits from our lands. Our "Golden Rule" here is: Please stay away from the smartphone during the agreed working hours - for our all safety and sanity 😏.
