My new friend Bernd recorded this “Portuguese Frog Concerto” -which has been my personal lullaby echoing from the riverside for the past 2 weeks … there are also 3 frogs vacationing in my water reservoire – any suggestions how to free them to join their mates for floating & dancing down by the river ?
Quinta Alvorada do Ouro

we invite you to a minga (shared work day) next tuesday morning (16th february) to be followed by a convivial mardi gras pancake lunch …
i would like to put up 150 metres of fencing with the aim of keeping the goats on the quinta and out of the vegetable garden. it would mainly be fixed to trees but will need some posts, mostly to be cut from mudronho.
i’d also like to remove the henhouse from its current location and rebuild it in the hen-run, to make more space for the sheep and goats who are multiplying at an alarming rate. (we had our first lamb yesterday, the other sheep is due in three weeks, the five goats are due ten days later.)
your help would be appreciated. i’d like to start at 9.00, aiming to have lunch at one o’clock or so.
please let me know if you’d like to come. will let you know about tools to bring when i know who’s
coming. outlandish carnaval costumes will of course be welcome, there may be prizes…
love

There is room for the right people to stay on with us and become part of the project.

I am looking for somewhere with space for a large polytunnel, terraces for organic veg, some sort of watertight house or shelter, perhaps some outbuildings or ruins for animals, but most importantly, running fresh water.
I ran an outdoors activities business in the middle Atlas mountains of Morocco for three years, so basic doesn’t bother me, and I am carrying all of the equipment to make sure off-grid living isn’t too tough. On leaving Morocco I decided to go self sufficient in Europe so I joined WWOOF and spent three months on a small organic farm in France learning the ropes of intensive organic agriculture. I have been studying Permaculture for the last year and my aim is to launch a veg basket scheme or AMAP as its know in France later in the year as the greenhouse and veg gardens come on line.
I would also consider perhaps joining up with an ongoing project along the lines of an eco village type thing. Basically I have the equipment and experience Im missing the land and decided to invest my smallish budget in the equipment to work the land rather than buy a piece of land and sit there with no money to bring it into production.
Thanks for your help, and let me know if anything else comes to mind.
Best regards
