The farm is worked organically, using permaculture principals and methods through out. It is a thriving organic ecosystem. We cultivate a large vegetable and herb garden, and the land itself offers a natural bounty for foraging, abundant with fruit trees and food forests. The entire property operates off-grid and is fully self-sufficient. We harness energy from hydroelectric, solar, and wind sources. Our water is sourced from three pristine natural springs and two reliable wells.
An ancient and complex irrigation system distributes water across the land, its core network a testament to Roman engineering with its original canal systems. This is complemented by agricultural terraces, natural water retention ponds, and valley-spanning olive groves that grace the terraced slopes. It is a profound honour to steward this land and work in harmony with its deep Roman and Celtic heritage.
The farm is brought to life by our beloved animals: our donkeys, Brancinho and Freya; Hakoon, the shepherd dog; Tejo, the cat; our pigs; and a lively flock of chickens. We offer seasonal produce from the land, including olives, olive oil, eggs, fresh vegetables, preserves, honey, fresh bread and a range of plant based remedies.
