Welcome to Quinta do Oryon

Located on the West Coast of the Algarve, 5 minutes drive from beautiful (surf) beaches and 3 minutes from the village Aljezur. 16 ha. farm with 3 lakes populated with koi carps. A large and beautiful garden and plenty of young fruit trees. We like to work with volunteers who assist us maintaining this beautiful farm and help us to extend the agricultural part on an ecological way of life, planting more trees and growing for self-supply organic vegetables.
Often we adopt new ideas which are suiting our activities on our farm. We try to find a new way to produce new things from the very rich nature around us. Sometimes art work is getting involved in our projects. The main work is taking care of all that we grow and keep on our 16 hectare farm.
Accommodation is in a big caravan. The minimum stay is 2 weeks.
To live an ecological life on a beautiful farm is a very pleasant experience. We also try continually to create new ideas. We think it would be more than nice to documentate those ideas with a video cam. Gladly we would like to have with us volunteers who have experience behind and in front of the camera, so we can try to film the exciting experiments on Quinta do Oryon the coming summer.
