Aldeia do Vale - Projecto Agroecológico - Permacultura

Este projeto teve início em 2016 e é o nucleo ambienal da CENEA , associação circuito explosivo, impulsionado pela vontade de provocar mudanças significativas na maneira como vivemos e olhamos o planeta Terra.
Somos um centro de pesquisa dedicado à regeneração, oferecendo formações abrangentes em áreas como permacultura, agroecologia, agricultura regenerativa, construções naturais, paisagens aquáticas, desenvolvimento pessoal e muito mais.

Localizado no concelho de Sintra, próximo à fronteira com Mafra, numa localidade chamada Barreiros, o projeto deparou-se com um local triste e abandonado, marcado pelo passar do tempo. No entanto, a paz e a beleza encontradas neste lugar inspiraram-nos,
A nossa Visão: Acreditamos num mundo melhor! Visualizamos um planeta ecologicamente equilibrado e abundante, onde todas as formas de vida são respeitadas. Acreditamos que, para ver a mudança, precisamos fazer parte dela, e juntos podemos fazer a diferença no ambiente que nos rodeia.

Oferecemos formação especializada em agroecologia, permacultura e sustentabilidade.

My first Worldpackers experience was a valuable challenge. It was my first time on an eco-construction project. Thank you Orlando for being kind and encouraging. your words, "it's your first time but you're a natural," are something I will take with me as I learn new skills.
Thank you to Silvia for your advice and encouragement for my upcoming project. It meant a lot :)
Ilídio, you have a lovely, kind heart. Thanks for everything.

A suggestion: clearer communication would help ensure an issue with one volunteer doesn't affect the experience of others volunteers and the environment.

It has been a truly positive experience. The environment is welcoming, surrounded by nature, and offers many opportunities for learning.
The people who come here are wonderful and really enrich the experience creating a great sense of community. Working hours can be flexible and tasks are always different and interesting. I especially appreciated being involved in hands-on work right away, with clear explanations and great guidance.
If I had to suggest an improvement, it would be to enhance communication in order to create an even safer and more supportive environment.

This was the perfect place for anyone who wants to learn about sustainablility and permaculture. Silvia and Orlando were great hosts and teachers. During my time at Aldeia I got to develop my green thumb, assist in the kitchen, and be immersed in nature and the animals including the cute chickens ;) The river and the waterfall is also very beautiful. I’m very thankful that I got to exist in their community and help out around the project. Muito Obrigada to everyone for a wonderful experience.

All in all I had an amazing time in Aldeia do vale! I helped mostly with building a roof which was a lot of fun. I learned a lot since I never did something similar and with the trust I received I had a real hands on experience :)
Silvia and Orlando have a huge knowledge and are really passionate about what they’re doing - which is super motivating and inspirational.
Once you get to know everyone you‘ll find out they’re very welcome, kind and generous.
The place itself and the surroundings are beautiful and you‘ll really learn what it means to live as a community :)
