The Experience

Welcome! We are an experimental farm practicing regenerative farming with rotational grazing of our sweet sheep, mischievous goats and our ferociously sweet guard puppy, Moxy! What makes us experimental? We are learning as we go with our ambitious plan to restore soil health on our land. We believe that we can heal our dry and depleted soils in the semi-arid region of southern Alentejo just by mimicking nature.

I learnt lots about how to help run the farm, lots of little tasks here and there. Quite isolated but in a really beautiful area and the animals were very cute. It was a pleasure getting to spend time with them.
