See our journey to self-sufficiency / permaculture / organic farming living in Portugal, trying to produce as much of our own food planting vegetables, growing fruit trees as well as looking after all our animals, such as our chickens, turkeys, geese, ducks, quail, rabbits and sheep - Shortly pigs too!
- Growing vegetables, raising meat and foraging on our cherry farm in Portugal’s Beira baixa, Fundão

How do I go about purchasing one of the amazing spots you show case for my family? I love this one.
Man, André really is a treasure. His natural and cultural knowledge of the region and beyond is stuff that you just can't find on books.
Crystal clear water (fall). So beautiful in the spring.
Beautiful piece of land! Springtime in central Portugal looks like heaven on earth. Thank you for a very nice video. Cheers to you and Andre!

Nice! I just planted 8 apple trees, 2 cherry trees, a Fig Tree, 2 blueberry, 8 Grape Vines, Blackberries, Strawberries, & Vegetables on my Private 2 acres with a spring in the mountains on NC.

Joseph and Andre, what a find for an early spring tour! This offers great inspiration as to what could be done on a small scale and with all the amenities, scale, close to the village…. It has it all and could be built/rebuilt to a very nice all inclusive lifestyle for the right people. Excellent place to get started.
Thank you both for showing this beautiful property, springtime is glorious there! André is such a treasure trove of information, how nice it would be if new owners could spend some time with him learning the story of the people who lived on the land before, and also walking the land to learn about the plants and their uses. I know there are "plant id" apps, but it's just not the same, André's knowledge (and recipes) are invaluable.
Gorgeous place! My favourite so far. Thanks to you and Andre for bringing this to us. We’re having a serious think about this one.
A little piece of heaven 🩵

Goodness, what well placed little quinta. So close to village amenities and fronts what looks like one your fave fishing spots! What a special opportunity. Oh, to have sacks of money and to be ready to move! 😊👍🏼 Thanks for the foraging but, Andre. Yes, i can see the bees whizzing past you. Didn't you stroll out to that waterfall with your dad? It sure looks like where you fished?

@Farmerforfun
Ай бұрын
Hello, thank you! During the ‘60s / ‘70s a lot of the children of the farmers decided it was more beneficial to them to move away to cities and more wealthy countries, therefore many became abandoned, nowadays most of the ruins you cannot even find the owners of as their children have been abroad for decades, unfortunately

Thank you Joseph! I’ve been wondering if it’s possible to build underground on those properties, like a wine cellar, or a basement to chill on hot days. Also, could this house be rebuild from scratch, like tear it all down and do your own architecture within the allowed size and height?
Hi Joseph, do you you guys have any ballpark figure for square meter construction cost for reconstruction of the ruins? Thank you and keep up the great job 👍

Wonderful film. If i was 10 years younger, I would be there on this property. The dwelling is in such bad condition it would take so much time and additional funds to make it livable. You do such awesome work. Thank you

It is a very broad question, depends on village, property type, age, current construction material, zoning etc, on this specific property you can build the footprint, go up one storey, possibly extend (need to speak with an architect about how much one can extend, costs €150 to find this info out from them) 💕

Hi Joseph, is the 150 euros per property to find this out, or is it a generic printout, etc. Like we've got here in the uk with permitted development plans? Is there a way I can get details of the architects that's providing this service, please? Thanks again

Hi Joseph, it looks to me like that this was originally an agricultural building and not used as a residential domestic house. There are no windows which makes me think it was a barn or a place to store crops. What does a licence to make it habitable include, i.e, bathroom, kitchen, sewage system etc? Would you not also need planning permission if those things don't exist or never existed in it's original construction? It's probably very different from the UK, here you would definitely need planning permission firstly for change of use and also to turn it into a domestic dwelling according to current regulations.
Anybody want to buy it for me lol.
