The Grape harvest finally arrived! Harvesting my red and white grapes for wine making. My first grape harvest and also first attempt at wine making. I'm working with a winemaker to produce the red wine and he is also helping me make jeropiga - a traditional grape liqueur - from the white grapes.
All leftover grapes will be gobbled up by myself or the birds.
My trusty helpers for the day, my friends at Casa Criativa. Find their Youtube channel here - [ Ссылка ]
My wine maker is Laurence from the Keela Permaculture Farm. They also offer loads of workshops and courses for those with an interest in permaculture as well as permaculture design. Find their intriguing YouTube channel here - [ Ссылка ]
Enjoying the journey? Consider buying me a cup of coffee or a roof tile to help save up for the new roof :) [ Ссылка ]
About Girl Meets Farm:
I'm Christine. I started this journey in search of my forever farm in Portugal, and now I have found it!
This is my adventure as a solo expat on a farm in Central Portugal with my two fur-kids, Shakti & Shiva.
I've never owned or lived on a farm, but moved to Portugal in the hope of fulfilling a life-long dream of finding open space, subsistence farming and a safer, better life.
Now that we have found our farm, the second stage of our journey begins!
I have to figure out farm life while renovating an agricultural structure to make it habitable and turn it into a comfortable home for me and my furkids.
Thank you for joining our journey!
