Projects
With strong foundations in permaculture, regenerative agriculture, and ecological design, we undertake a diverse range of projects spanning from eco-tourism, agri-tourism, botanical gardens, residential self-sufficiency, and community education.
From developing kitchen gardens for farm-to-table experiences to designing edible landscapes and leading volunteer programs, each project emphasizes regenerative practices, water conservation, soil health, and the integration of useful, low-maintenance, and productive ecosystems. Whether through consultancy, collaborative design, or educational initiatives, we are dedicated to fostering a deeper connection between people and the natural world while promoting self-sufficiency and ecological balance.

"Pomar dos Sabores" Orchard of Flavours "An Edible Botanical Garden"
Collaborative design, article writing, strategic planning, botanical garden acreditation process and more
November 2020 - Ongoing
​
I am a privileged partner of the Orchard of Flavours Botanical garden. This garden, located near Tavira, is dedicated to all the fruit trees of warm climates that can be acclimatized in Algarve. Since its beginning, I took part in this open source educational project. It enabled me to study, plant and observe a large number of very interesting, often lesser known fruit trees, many of which have proven to work very well in this climate.
Orchard of Flavours website can provide you with invaluable information about the world of fruit trees. For example, it will provide you with a list of drought tolerant fruit tree possibilities for your garden. It also contains educational articles, many of which I co-authored, about all the techniques we have used!
A visit to Orchard of flavours is without a doubt one of the most interesting experiences in this region, you will learn so much and Miguel is an excellent guide!
