Some photos of the jungle / Algumas fotos da selva

The gardens are going crazy. Peaches dropping by the 100s, mushrooms, wild pumpkins, all is a mass of growth and life. We are just starting to get courgettes with peppers and tomatoes not far behind, adding to the wide variety of crops we’ve already been eating.

  4. I am thinking to wwoof, and I search for a place.
    I liked the pictures w. the short comments.
    It seems interesting, and the same time useful.

    All the best, Shoshana

    I am interested to wwoof in Portugal, to an ecological farm which is interested in healing/yoga/health related demos $ lectures/art.No smoking and hard physical work.
