Do you like Permaculture? Come help us with Eco Building in Portugal!
The experience
A COB kitchen has already been built on the land, and our aim is to rebuild another space and build a COB bathroom. Eco-construction techniques such as thin tadelak plasters will be applied. We will always have an experienced person leading all tasks locally. We also need support with some renovation work on a main house. We have some work on the ground in terms of cultivation and we are looking for help in that area as well.
