Events
Seedy Sunday / Domingo Sementeiro
Bread Oven / Forno
We’re going to start building our bread oven this Saturday, 18th September!
Everyone Welcome
This will not be run as a formal workshop but simply an opportunity for anyone who’s interested to come along and see how it’s done (and hopefully lend a hand!).
Lunch & drinks will be provided for which there is no charge, but please let us know if you will be coming so we have an idea of how many we need to cater for.
Depending on the final design, weather, number of people, etc, we expect the build to last 3-5 days. You are welcome to come for as much or as little as you like.
On Saturday we’ll start with building the foundation / base for the oven.
Saturday evening is the last night of our village festa, with live music and fireworks (and a pool tournament at our local bar) – so there’s lots of fun to be had this weekend!
If you want to bring a tent and camp here for the Bread Oven Build that is no problem. We have a kitchen caravan where you can prepare your own breakfast & evening meal, a solar shower, a compost toilet, and a swimming pool! 5 euros per night (small tent) / 10 euros per night (large tent). Some yurt accommodation may also be available. More info at: www.portugalyurt.co.uk
Does anyone have a slab of stone (granite, slate, …) at least 1m x 1m that we can have / buy for the base of the oven?
The kindness of strangers
Some very kind people we have never met called Isabella and Alice sent Little Ladies a present recently…see below.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR OUR LOVELY PARCEL. We had great fun and the outfits and toys will continue to get used on our Friday get-togethers.
(p.s Sorry Alice and Isabella that it took so long to open the parcel – we have been away and missed quite a few Fridays)
Little Ladies who Lunch
Our weekly gathering of ex-pat Mums and Kids in the village continues and we are growing. Last Friday we met here on the quinta and had lots of fun painting and going on the new Pirate Ship Slide.

Painting Fun
We have also started to go to Carregal do Sal to a lovely swimming pool on Wednesday afternoons if anyone wants to join us contact me for details. We might have to change our name from Little Ladies though…as we now have Luca (a month old) who is joining us and another little boy who has just moved to the area with his parents!

Seedy Sunday / Domingo Sementeiro
Bring plants & seeds to swap, and food to share!
Trazer plantas & sementes para trocar, e comida para partilhar!
Please let us know if you can come – we’ll provide hot soup for lunch but also ask that you bring food to share. It would also be nice to have an idea of what seeds and plants people will be bringing – and if… there are any plants/seeds you would really like to find at the event!
Por favor, deixe-nos saber se você pode vir – nós vamos dar sopa quente para o almoço, mas também pedimos que você trazer comida para partilhar. Também seria bom ter uma idéia do que sementes de plantas e as pessoas estarão trazendo – e se existem plantas / sementes que você realmente gostaria de encontrar no evento!
Children are welcome and Kirsten will be here with toys, paints, and playdough!
Crianças são bem-vindos e Kirsten estará aqui com brinquedos, tintas e playdough!
