Hi there! I am Joseph.
I have been an immigrant / expat living in central Portugal along with my beautiful girlfriend Mariana for seven years now.
Together Mariana, my father Clinton and myself, would like to show you a bit of the daily goings on around our Portuguese farm / homestead / smallholding and all of the work we are doing whilst renovating, starting building projects, working with our livestock, DIY and trying to grow our little families own food!
In this episode we welcome you to join us in Early Autumn as we are given a tour around our friends farm, which is for sale, in a rural mountain village in central Portugal.
We start the virtual tour by introducing ourselves on a beautiful private track leading down to the farm as we explain the location of this wonderful gem of a farm and a little about the surroundings and local amenities.
We begin by walking up the short private shingle track, which gives fantastic access to the farm, just a few metres away from a tarmac road. Then we step onto the property itself, the first thing we see as we look around is electricity posts connecting to this farm, then we walk down towards the granite building on the land. It is a 140m2 building with a covered parking area that is attached to the back. It can be increased in size though to make it a larger building if needed.
Mariana and I both walk inside the little building and take a look around at all of the old tools and instruments for agriculture. There are lots of signs that this place once had a lot of life in it, I hope this comes back to this beautiful place.
After the building we walk past the olive grove, which has roughly one hundred olive trees, some young, some mature. The owners were picking the olives here and it was a treat to be able to talk with them for a while, whilst they worked away.
That brings us to the next building on the land, it is a complete ruin and is situated right next to the olive grove. It has a very similar footprint of the first building and once renovated would make an amazing bed and breakfast style cottage, overlooking the farm.
As we walk along the farms boundary line we can see lots of well cared for mature vines, this would produce a good few hundred litres of wine every year!
Then we come to the well, which is rather large, roughly around 8 metres in diameter, there are a few orange trees next to this well and it is situated on the north pasture. The pastures are green and lushious here, the reason for that it the pure amount of water irrigating them year round.
Which brings us nicely onto the lake, the lake is a private fishing lake of 3,340m2. A beautiful lake indeed!
I wish you all a very pleasant week ahead and I hope to see you all in the next one! Bye bye for now!
See our journey to self-sufficiency / permaculture / organic farming living in Portugal, trying to produce as much of our own food planting vegetables, growing fruit trees as well as looking after all our animals, such as our chickens, turkeys, geese, ducks, quail, rabbits and sheep - Shortly pigs too!

She is lovely isn't she?! I love her so much!

[@sniper-lt9pd]

[@kathybaugh3823]

Wow, what potential that farm has. Someone is going to be very happy there. Good luck with your own olive harvest Joseph. Also, I hope your Dad is doing well. Have a good week. X 👍

[@Farmerforfun]

He is doing fine thank you Kathy, he hates being laid up, but at least it has been damp and drizzly, so perfect time to be so!

[@ruthconstantino6861]

This beautifully kept property is sure to make its fortunate buyer very happy!

[@nguyyen6192]

Although I've been to Portugal before, as a tourist we stuck to the urban areas. Through your videos and your relaxed and upbeat way, you take us a tour of various sites, giving us a vicarious trip to rural Portugal with glimpses of the land, the people, the fauna/flora, the cuisine... altogether, your videos are a true delight to watch!

[@Farmerforfun]

Bless you my dear friend! Thank you so much, much love to you!

[@cesarneves]

Hey my dear friends! Fantastic property! Great for an investment for rural tourism, it fits specially in my vision. Just a hint: when showing these properties perhaps you could also include a map depicting the location of them so we (mostly who are not familiar with Portugal) could have a better notion of the nearby cities, accesses, etc... definitely putting this one on my list.

[@Houmanlo]

Agree.

[@mydogs1mom]

What a beautiful farm! I love watching your videos, in anticipation of moving to Portugal. Thank you!

[@guywolfe4973]

Joseph & Mariana a great partnership and competition for the estate agents. Joeseph you,r e a great orator , showing some fantastic properties. Love the portugeses legend obrigado Mariana

[@segunoladipo3590]

Outstanding property. "Jealous" of the lucky potential owner. Surely it can't get any better than this. Well done Joseph and Mariana for showing this property. You folks make homesteading very attractive indeed. I will be very interested in making contact when I do visit next spring. Hope your Dad is on the mend. Best wishes.

[@conclavious1075]

Wow. Super interesting video. You are Great farmer and Kindful father or husband in the world. God bless you. Best of luck with the good time.

[@oldbloke204]

Very nice indeed.

[@Ashokmadlani1]

Thank you for sharing lovely farm

[@serenapimentel7372]

Does anyone keep ponies in Portugal? I haven't heard mention of them at all. But it seems they would be happy in a place like this.

[@Farmerforfun]

Hi Serena! Yes, lots of people keep them, I see them around every so often!

[@serenapimentel7372]

@@Farmerforfun Oh what a dream that would be. I love this property but it looks intimidating! One would need a whole team of people to maintain it. Maybe ponies would be just as happy on a more humble acreage haha.

Crikey, that's a lot of land. Very nice property, but probably too big for me. How is your dad doing ?

[@CaptainCurt07]

*Very nice presentation, what’s the process for Americans and can I fly a little airplane from this property if I own a airplane?* Thank you!

[@Farmerforfun]

Hi Captain Curt! I don't know much about aviation laws in Portugal I'm afraid, sorry! Process to buy is easy though :D I can explain it via email at [e-mail]

[@lust4bass]

You can probably get information about that at "Aero Club de Portugal". Cheers

[@atiqkhan7273]

Truely Delight to watch your videos . After watching your number of videoes I am thinking to go ahead but if you don't mind to tell me what is reason behind and why people wants to sell the beautyful properties while they can earn good livelyhood or it is unproductive economicaly

[@arthurholroyd8550]

You put it over good Joe and can you say how Is your dad ?

[@dudefullofjelly]

Joseph a standard football pitch is just over half a hectare 0.64 to be exact so that 17 hectares would be more like 27 football pitches.

[@Farmerforfun]

Hi there! Thank you! It was just a general size to help people who might not be able to imagine a hectare 😊

[@haydnlawrence8167]

Just wondering the price of building materials in Portugal compared to Uk ? Having bought building materials in France I would say the price comparison is between 30- 40% more .

[@jameshunt2905]

Hello Joseph and Mariana.... for ease in relating to the size of a hactare... Its roughly 2 and 1/2 acres per hectare.

[@Farmerforfun]

Hello! Yea you are correct 😊

[@hasanferoz2364]

How much a chicken farm coat and a cattle farm cost in Portugal?? Is there any documentation required to do livestock farming?

[@royking7298]

one hectar = 10,000 square meters. This farm is 170,000 square meters. one hectar = 2,471 acres. This farm is 42 acres. So there! :) :) ;)

[@JimBrown-jz3tv]

Thank you from a non mathematical brain.😅

[@JuanAmeritano-yj5xt]

Portugal is beautiful but breathtaking?

[@FrogmortonHotchkiss]

I watch this wondering what's the catch... What are the downsides of moving from the UK to Portugal? Seems like a straight trade-up.

[@Farmerforfun]

It was the best thing I ever did, I regret nothing about our move :)

[@FrogmortonHotchkiss]

@@Farmerforfun I'm glad for you. Moving away from the country I know, where I have friends, is a scary prospect for me... but this place is in a bad way now. I know there is worse, but it's getting nigh impossible for an ordinary person to own and live on land. Perhaps some expat has been on this journey and blogged about it, to the effect of 'here's what I wish I knew when I started'. That might be reassuring & helpful. Being with a partner from Portugal obviously helps. My partner & I don't have a native connection like that, but we are considering chipping in with likeminded people so that we'll have a bit of ready-made community there.

[@ludmycita]

Hola 👋 me preguntaba si sería posible la ampliación de la casa ? Hasta cuánto ?

[@absoluterottweilers]

Hi Joseph. Is this farm still for sale. We are on our way back to Portugal soon.

[@Farmerforfun]

[@jorgeferreira2950]

Hi, an English football pitch is 7140 sq mts where as 1Hectare is 10000 sq mts 👍😁

[@Farmerforfun]

It's a rough guideline so that people can visualise how large a hectare is if they are not used to using them, not an exact measurement...

[@nextmoreinc]

Loving the content guys! Please let us know when somthing comes up and we can pay via crypto. shoutout from sweden

[@infamouscrook]

Is this still available?

[@TracyCul]

Joseph, how come ALL your neighbours are selling ?? 😂😂

[@Farmerforfun]

Unfortunately in Portugal the younger generation no longer want to farm and instead they move away to cities to earn more money. This means that the aging population here that have farms tend to want to sell, no youngsters around to buy means generally a lot of places here are for sale, I currently know around 60 proeprties for sale

[@TracyCul]

@@Farmerforfun Ah fair comment and I didn't mean to be so flippant if I had realised. It was supposed to be a joke about what they all had in common was living near you ...

What about Health Care? What is their program?

Lovely piece of land. Price seems a bit high for pasture land though. Around here I can get 120 acres for about 200k (In the US)

[@Farmerforfun]

It works out at 13,000 per hectare, that includes two large granite buildings, one has a new roof and also a 3,340m2 lake. It is actually a very good price!

[@rsrecandshare]
