Quinta da Bazรกgueda in Portugal is inviting volunteers from March onwards to join eco-building and farm life in the scenic Serra da Malcata Reserve. The main focus is on restoring and constructing with natural materials like stone, clay, sand, and wood, as well as building a new electric fence to protect goats, sheep, and cows. Volunteers can also experience daily farm tasks such as animal care, milking, cheese-making, gardening, and forestry.
This opportunity is ideal for those passionate about sustainable living, nature, and heritage breeds. Families with children are welcome, and participants should be adaptable, respectful of the environment, and eager to embrace authentic rural life.
Free time can be spent enjoying the surrounding wilderness – swimming in the river, exploring wildlife, or relaxing on the farm. Itโs a hands-on experience combining eco-construction, farming, and a close connection to nature.
