PERMACULTURE GARDEN
At Casas na Ferraria we regenerate the earth by taking care of the microscopic beings that live in the soil, respecting the balance between what grows above and what lives below. We sow and keep alive heirloom seeds, which have passed from hand to hand. The project of Permaculture in Casas na Ferraria, rescues traditional agricultural techniques from different regions of the world that ensure the soil’s health, only in a healthy soil, healthy living beings can grow.
