    New here? My name is Lea and I live with my partner Maarten, our daughter Puck and toddler Bo on our land in Central Portugal. We left the rat race in the Netherlands in 2018 and moved south in our old campervan. Five years ago we bought land in Portugal that had been abandoned for several decades. After lots of hard work we now live in a beautiful yurt and keep ourselves busy growing our own vegetables as well as producing olive oil, wine and honey on a small scale. This channel documents all the different jobs we have to do, and sometimes some nice footage of this beautiful country we now call home.

    I adore your content b/c you're so genuine, so transparent and so profound. What a treasure you are to your followers but more importantly to your husband and your children. The cooking episodes are always so informative and I love how you patiently allow the children to help you in the kitchen as well as in the garden. You've touched my heart in so many ways...thank you.

    It’s always such a treat to see your videos, congratulations on your baby chicks, they are beautiful. My family comes from Portugal and I have great memories of just being free and playing with the baby animals, children have a special way to be so gentle with baby animals when you live like this. Thank you for sharing your beautiful lifestyle 👍👍❤️❤️

    I thought of you today as I picked my first summer squash of the season. It has been unusually hot here in New England. As I see your baby chicks I am missing my own flock of egg layers. Perhaps I will start again.
    I am glad you have a good dependable solar storage battery. I can not imagine not having one for back up.

    • @ourportuguesehomestead

      It's "queijo fresco", fresh cheese. Basically a really young cheese. You can also make it with ricotta (will be a different texture) if that is more available to you

    I am annoyed with your idea that the chicks, 'just happened'; and it is something that you have had to deal with in the best way possible. YOU made the decision to introduced fertilized eggs to your broody chicken. Before you did that, don't you think it would have been beneficial to the hen and chicks to carefully consider their future welfare. Maybe more of the spur of the moment decisions of homesteaders about introducing animals to their properties should be more considered, and geared towards the welfare of the animals.

    the ducklings basically have rubber bones at that stage.
    it might be different for chickens
