Quinta Estrela do Sul
We have a small scale family farm of 8 hectares with various animals and we're happy to receive volunteers! We have a big vegetable garden with much diversity, an abundance of fruit trees, a vineyard and 250 olive trees. We produce our own olive oil. We have several animals (horses, a goat, chickens, dogs and cats, and soon bees and a sheep) - we do our best to make them happy!
We have a big space in the nature, and besides work you can relax and enjoy. There's a lot of space and many trails to hike around the land.
Our food is fresh, organic, homemade, exclusively vegetarian. Working with us is a great opportunity to have a daily physical activity, to learn about farming and acquire some new skills.
Until end of 2024 we're now full, but in 2025 we open our availability from mid-April till the autumn.
NB: we're not able to provide invitation letters or any other paper work to support an EU visa request; you will have to manage this on your own.
We welcome our guest volunteers as if they were members of our family. We cook and take our meals all together - we love to cook and we eat delicious vegetarian food. You will stay with us in our straw bale house, in a separate room or a big dormitory (a glamping tent is also available in summer, for those who prefer camping). You have access to a bathroom and shower, with compost toilets.
