Soil looks nice, dark brown, friable, fertile; you get a lot of rain, which helps. Our soil right now, in Pennsylvania under drought conditions is just like cement! We need rain!
Amazing how the house structure and the land is coming to life. You are doing great work. Keep it up, but be careful with all that dust; I would wear a mask. Loved seeing you with the traditional "boina galega"...screams minhoto😅...how I miss seeing my granddad wearing it...
""The nispero or Japanese loquat in English is an Asian fruit that has been cultivated for thousands of years. Although introduced to Spain about two thousand years ago by sailors arriving in ports of the Valencia region, it wasn't until the 19th century that the loquat began to be cultivated in Spain and elsewhere around the Mediterranean. The loquat tree thrives wherever citrus trees do, making the warm coastal areas of the Mediterranean a perfect fit. Spain is the main producer of loquat in Europe. It is also known as the medlar.""
Hiya, in the beginning of this video where you are sorting your compost there is a big rock that looks like an aligator , maybe you can play on that somewhere around your house 😃
Time to plant your corn. The field looks good. It's been fallow, so hopefully you get a good crop this year weather permitting. Did you move the storage building yet? Your lunch looked delicious. Slugs and snails are prolific everywhere this year. Garden snails are edible if you like them, an inch or bigger or they aren't worth the effort though. They are eating your best produce after all lol.
Thanks for your comment. I’m very excited to see the corn in the ground. I’ll be working to move the cob drier over the next few weeks. Still have a few months before harvest.
Wish you would have identified the fruits on that tree! I got it from the comments section. I never heard of nespera (loquats). I heard of kumquats but not loquats. Both native to China and grown in South America and Portugal! Learn something new every day!
Do you bury your potato plants as the leaves start to develop? I grow a few plants each year in bags, I have such a small garden but still enjoy harvesting my own vegetables. I am loving your dual approach to caring for the land as well as renovating the house.
Yes I do, at least once but at times twice. Thanks, my plan is to live off of the land just as my grandparents did, for that I need to get the land back to production as soon as possibles
@@Joaquim_Conde I am literally watching right now the episode where you discuss people using herbicides to control grass, and the problem with the weed that has the deep root and tuber between the rows of corn. So far the only thing I think I have had more success with than you is my carrots! We cheated and planted ours in raised beds.
Please explain that heating method of the sheep in the stone first floor that heat the second. Is it their body heat, manure or what? How can some sheep heat the upstairs?
Nice progress. Your garden looks lovely
Thank you
You live so much off the land!
It’s so great that there are many things growing wild there.
For a very humble home, you eat better than most!

In Portugal they’re called “Nêsperas”, but in the northern part, this northern part they are known as “magnórios”…

Very calming and enojoyable to watch. BTW, where is the black kitten?
Thank you. It’s still with mom, I’m going to visit them this week, hopefully it warms up to me, so the transition here is smooth.
@@Joaquim_Conde Good to know.
What are the fruits that you were eating? Thanks
Those are 'Loquats' they are a sweet citrus fruit with big brown seeds that take up alot of space inside them . 👍
Please explain that heating method of the sheep in the stone first floor that heat the second. Is it their body heat, manure or what?
How can some sheep heat the upstairs?
The combination of their body temperature plus the heat generated by the fermentation of the bedding material with the urine and manure in it.
