Return to Portugal w. Joaquim Conde

After almost four decades away, Joaquim returned to the homestead of his formative years, in the Minho valley, which after 50 years of neglect turned into  a ruin that he’s bringing back to the beauty of his childhood memories.

His work fuses the best of the past with the best of the present to achieve the best possible for the future.

The self sufficiency of yesteryears in the homestead is a major motivation, and will lead to the creation of the future Portuguese Institute for the Study of Family Sustenance Agriculture for the 21st Century and beyond. 

His weekly videos cover:

Self sufficiency.
Living off the grid.
Essential infrastructure.
DIY with confidence. 
Building with stone. 
Traditional stone house.
Food production.
Gardening.
Farm animals
Composting.
Gravity irritation.

Organic.
Cooking.
Natural wine. 
Active, healthy lifestyle.
Local culture.
Sustainability (a loaded word)
Tools & tech ( nerdy )
