    Join me on an eventful day on the Quinta as I inadvertently burst our water main, move a load of wood, hop on the tractor for some mowing, and find time to plant some sunflowers! Watch as we work through our day in rural Portugal with a backdrop of stunning views.
    If you're in the UK on the last weekend of May, don't miss the chance to meet us at #Shynefest! Check out the lineup and find your tickets at www.shynefest.uk for a weekend of music and fun.
    As the weather improves and our workload increases, I'm transitioning back to one video per week with occasional specials and member's videos. With every waking hour spent cutting grass, planting, and watering, expect regular videos on Thursdays, specials on Tuesdays, and member's vids whenever they come up. Look out for Shorts, released on Fridays! Thank you immensely for your support!
    Embarking on our journey from England to picturesque rural Portugal #SerraDaEstrela two years ago has been a rollercoaster of challenges and delights! Thank you for tuning in to #HowardsPortugal - your support means the world!
    Curious about beekeeping, farming, carpentry, or growing your own fruit & vegetables? Join us as we navigate this new lifestyle, striving to be more self-sufficient and connected to the land.

    Homesteading lessons: always know where your buried services are, be sure to store materials out of the way, take the advice of your cat in good grace! Good luck with the growing season, Howard, totally understand the need to reduce video output as you get busier on the land. Look forward to seeing your progress 🌳

    Why don't you and Eve pop over on Sunday afternoon, then you can see mine and I can give you some very sound advice as I have done both farming and self sufficiency for many years now.

    Is that song we hear before the 9th minute, sung in Hebrew? Pretty!

    Evening Howard, you enjoying this English weather as i making things slow but heavy as the water that is going on is doing a lot of good. I see it's been 75 in western Scotland , typical in May as I was there nearly 8 years and a better place to grow things than it was in England as most things were ready 2 weeks even 3 sometimes in front of my farm in the Vale of York.. It has to turn next week as could do a bit of heat now to speed up the citrus which has been flowering for over 2 weeks now. Have got a massive crop of apples especially Bramleys so don't forget to pop in and get some when they are ready.I did a bit of watering last week, did the whole garden took me 3 hours with the hosepipe, expecting warmer weather that they said was coming and am still waiting for it so not done again yet. I wouldn't have bought the rotavator as it doesn't drive it's self so you are walking on what you have done. A Howard Gem or a Honda 800 will do the job far better as both are self propelled and you walk at the side just to steady it. I had the Honda when in Scotland, very useful in the greenhouses.

      Definitely, treading in ground you'vd just turned over isn't helpful...hadn't heard of those machines. It remains rather chilly - the fire is still lit most evemings!

      I am in the mountains over 2,000 ft up and I lifted my first spuds on April 28, carrots a week later and now am picking peas. So you must have been very late planting.
