Hi there! I am Joseph.
I have been an immigrant / expat living in central Portugal along with my beautiful girlfriend Mariana for eight years now.
Together Mariana, my father Clinton and myself, would like to show you a bit of the daily goings on around our Portuguese farm / homestead / smallholding and all of the work we are doing whilst renovating, starting building projects, working with our livestock, DIY and trying to grow our little families own food!
See our journey to self-sufficiency / permaculture / organic farming living in Portugal, trying to produce as much of our own food planting vegetables, growing fruit trees as well as looking after all our animals, such as our chickens, turkeys, geese, ducks, quail, rabbits and sheep - Shortly pigs too!
- Growing vegetables, raising meat and foraging on our cherry farm in Portugal’s Beira baixa, Fundão

Those boulders at the entrance were amazing! Let us know what you think to this homestead :)
The big boulders look so good. i cannot imagine them
Those boulders are perfect to make a good trespasser-trap!!!👻
They certainly are, are you thinking Indiana Jones style? I can see that working well haha!!
@@Farmerforfun I was thinking more like a good'ol mouse-trap...all you need is some 'cheese' to tempt the bandit..;)
Haha!!! and a very strong string to pull the Little Rock, great idea, love it!!!
Andre is a walking Botanist.
Joe helped my wife and i find our dream farm a while ago now. he has been so helpful in helping us intergreat into the local community and i highly reccommend him and his services. thank you so much Joe, we are so appreciative to you.
Bless you James, you both know you are so welcome, it has been a pleasure helping you. Thank you for the meal this week too, I really enjoyed it :) Much love to you both!!!!
That is great to know, it really is kind of you to help us all feel better in case we want to move there too, and very cool recommendation for Joe too ❤
Thank you Jodie! Much love 💕 Any questions please feel free to pass them on farmerforfun@outlook.com
Thanks Joseph.. Nice property.. I would really like to make a lovely B&B out of it.. Any suggestions..
I am so excited am headed there friday. I cannot wait to work with he and lucy. are you guys living there now?
And the one with the yellow flowers would be a mullein
Expired Nettles plants are one of the best natural fertilisers-So wherever they grow and die will usually be very fertile land. That, added with the water availability makes this one a real gem
Ohh wow! I didn’t know that, thank you so much my friend! All the best to you! 💕
Hello Joseph! I have been searching for the perfect property to create my new life, and I believe this is it! I have sent an email and am very excited to speak with your team about purchasing this property. Thank you so much for finding and posting this beautiful place 💚
Olá Joseph! Love watching your videos! Congrats on your Portuguese! It's very nice to see your efforts in speaking our language! Malvas in English is Mallow. And André forgot or maybe doesn't know that we also use it as a tea and as a cleanser to help treat uti's.
All the best! xx
A pleasure to view as usual , thanks Joseph and André 😊
Hi, Joseph! Thank you so much for this video. We miss them. The property is beautiful and the stream is great. What a tranquil place! Wonderful views. Malvas are mallows. Have a nice weekend!
Hi Mary! Thank you so much!!!! I am so glad you liked the video and that is great to know about the mallows, I wish you a wonderful weekend too, are you a forager too?
@@Farmerforfun Forager meaning a person who knows about plants? No. I'm just a curious person who likes to know things about plants. I find them very interesting. Thank you so much for the answer. I hope Mariana is doing OK. And Chloe, of course!
Good morning Joseph! So good to see you this morning
Hello there my dear friend, thank you for commenting, hope you like the video!! :D
Joseph... 1st query “Malvis” or Mallow in English and has a number of uses and benefits both traditionally and in modern use cultures. One of the primary and consistent uses is as an anti-inflammatory. The second (wide leaf and with large flower heads is “Dock” which also has many uses both traditionally and in modern applications as well.
Nice project property here... many thanks for sharing it with those of us from afar.
Great stuff joe as always!
I could be wrong, but i think the first plant might of been a mallow and the 2nd on the bottom terrace silvery leaves and grows tall with little yellow flowers could be Verbascum. Bees love it
Yes, I think it's Verbascum too, 'Verbascum hybrida' or 'Southern Charm', in English.
Yes Verbascum, some call it “greater mullion”
This is a very pretty biologic homestead with nor worries for water and so many trees. I love it, Joseph. If i were 30 years younger, i'd jump at this one! It's the 1st tiny ruin i've liked, and i'd certainly tap you for your recommended professionals to rebuild it. This setting gives me Secret Garden vibes. I'd surely ask you over often to teach me how to forage the land 😊. This is going to snapped up so quickly that i won't have hardly any time to daydream about it 😄. Thanks so much for your presentations.
Hi, the English for Malva is Mallow. You can use it to make stuffed 'vine leaves' too
What an incredibly beautiful property. ❤
Fundão and Castelo Branco northern interior. Portugal is always just something truly unexpectedly beautiful. I hope you get happy there ❤🎉🙏🏽
It really is! Honestly best thing I ever did in my life was move here. Are you living in Fundão area my friend?
@@Farmerforfun Indeed ! I'm quite really happy for you my friend ! No, I'm living in Andalusia, south Spain.
Bless you, thank you so much! I wish you the best in everything you do my friend! Love Andulusia!!!!
@@ourlovehowerica im leaving malaga to goto coimbra, had enough of 5 months of 100 degrees F all year and little water , its just not fun :)
Beautiful, almost like a little fairy glen or hobbit house. Just no good for my height, but wonderful all the same. We wait with eagerness for your videos. Always learning new information & great videos also. Thanks guys!
Bless you my dear friend, thank you so much!!! It is like a hobbit hole! Love it!
Really loved this combo of exploring the property for sale and discovering the foraging opportunities... It's all just so pretty and green this time of year. Great video thanks. :)
Hello there, thank you so much! It really is beautiful this time of year, the mountain looks orange right now haha!
Hi, 'malvas' translate as mallows in English. Lovely property, many thanks Joseph X:)
Fantastic video. Your videos are very interesting. You're the best of all time. Wishing all the best for the your future of good life. God Bless You and your family members
Thank you very much! You are so kind my friend! 💕 How are you doing? 😊
Great video Joseph. Lovely property. The plant that produces lots of yellow flowers on a tall stem is Verbascum 👍🏻
Ahhh, thank you so much for letting us know! Are you an avid forager too? :) Much love!
@@Farmerforfun not particularly, just a gardener and a farmer 👍🏻 All the best my friend.
Those boulders look like a mini Stonehenge. This property looks quite manageable. Thanks for sharing.
It really does, doesn't it?!! Amazing!!!!
Beautiful video Joe always lovely looking around the properties, love the stream , take care ,😊❤x
Thank you so much Nan! Much love to you and grandad! :D x
Possibly my favorite you've shown, ever. And I'm not even finished watching. Thanks for sharing! I've been looking forward to seeing your next video and it was well worth the wait. Just dreamy. I must finish the video!😂 Yall keep on keepin' on. ❤
Wow, thank you!!! You are so kind, much love to you my dear friend, let me know if you still love it once you have finished :D
Yes Joseph, I still love it! Could it be possible that I love it even more now that I've seen the whole property? Absolutely! Wow.
Ahhh that is great news! I am so pleased, thank you so much :)
I’m always amazed when i video chat with the nieces and nephews in the Philippines. They are all teenagers now and those that were teens then are out of college and married with children.
A friend of mine just spent 4 months in Dumaguette. I was in Tanjay back in 2009 and enjoyed the area. My friend didn’t like it because he said there were lots of expats there and most were talking bad about the US which I never understood.
My wife wants to visit there on our next trip to the Philippines. Just don’t know when that will happen because I really got an itch to see Portugal!
Can you do some videos about costs of building this and that. Fitouts etc. might be good business for some local builders doing a couple of walk through showcasing their work and costs of that work. Love the vids from Australia. Be there soon
Maybe an idea for a new channel.. herbal remedies. What a great place
Great idea! What should we call it? ‘Herbal for fun’
Very nice. Thanks for sharing these gems with us.
According to the translator, "malvas" (assuming that's the correct spelling) is "mallows" or "hollyhocks"
Ahhh ok, that’s interesting, thank you so much! Do you like foraging? 😊
Amazing!!!!!
People also ask
What is the common name for Malva plant?
common mallow
Malva sylvestris, commonly known as common mallow but also known as wood mallow, tree mallow and high mallow, is native to Europe, western Asia and northern Africa. It is similar in appearance to the genera Hibiscus and Alcea.
Marshmallow as someone has already stated. It is great for skin problems. Lovely property and if I was single and a lot younger I would be there. Thankyou guys…from an old Aussie. I am on an acre second property in. This is in a small town in South West Victoria. I can only have 4 hooved animals and 10 birds. Best we could find as prime volcanic land and can only buy big properties now.
i tried masrhmallow but now im sticking to everything and the dogs wont stop licking me, should i have used the white ones not the pink ones?
Either is fine, just keep them out of the heat next time hahaha!
A very nice piece of land
Thank you so much Deborah! How are you doing this fine day? :D
@@Farmerforfun beautiful sunny spring day here in Victoria Australia.
Beautiful! Enjoy the beauty of Spring my friend, we have golden leaves and autumnal clouds right now :)
The oak trees produce acorns. Very nice land.
Hi there, they certainly do, the things we had though were oak apples, not acorns! Much love my friend! 💕
@@Farmerforfun interesting. They look just like acorns. The native in Arizona collect them as a meal. I learned something new today. Love back to you 💗
They look similar but oak apples are totally round and come from the branch, very interesting things 😊 💕
In the US we call those oak galls. And Joseph is correct, they are caused by wasps. They are totally different from acorns, which is the fruit of the oak tree.
18:16 it is called Cheeseweed. It was discovered by that Old Palestinian people ( Canaanites ) 46 thousands years ago.
Malvas are called mallow in english. They have a real pretty flower.
The malvus probably wild mallow can have a mauve or white flower. The tall fellow flowered plant is wild verbascum the leaves are slightly hairy and we're used as torch leaves soaked in pitch or wax.
Excellent!!!! Thank you so much. Ohhh how interesting about using the leaves as torches, do you do foraging too? :)
Hello Joe, I want buy a farm there in Portugal. Thanks
Hello Joseph. Any knowledge of other plots close or has boundaries with this acreland that can be bought and united with this one....?
Yes, actually I do! There is some land going cheap at the side, Andre knows more about the details than I do, send me an email and I can get all the details to you! farmerforfun@outlook.com
This looks like so much more than 1 acre. Verdant land.
Malvas are common mallow
Hello Joseph
I have been following your channel for a long time now. and i will hopefully be coming to portugal next year. thats when i retire. although this property would not suit me. i look forward to seeing more propertys from you. and i know your busy but would it be possible for you to update your property site and let us know what as been solds and is under offer and what is still for sale,
Hi there!
Thank you, I know I need to have a little tidy up on there. I'll look at doing it over the next week :D Thank you!!
Hello Joseph, I simply adore your videos. This property is adorable. Unfortunately, it is too big for my age to take care of it.
I was born in Medelim, which is not very far. I live in USA and I am thinking about a property in the region for my retirement.
I will continue to watch your videos and maybe something will come forth,
Hello!!! Thank you so much, I have a small property with a ruin in Medelim if you were interested to see it please send us an email! farmerforfun@outlook.com
Joseph, just a quick question. The brambles that you speak about quite often in your videos; are they berry brambles?
Hello there, yes, they are wild blackberries, rather tasty, need gloves when harvesting though to avoid the prickles!
Nice piece of property and very well priced ❤ I do miss your recipes Joseph...
Thanks for video, nice property. I have two questions, at minute 16:06 there is a brick structure of some kind on the right of the screen, any idea what it is? And in the same time frame there is what appears to be a manhole cover of some sort to the lower left of the screen, any idea what that is? I know, too inquisitive! :)
Hello!! The block wall is just a retaining wall, keeps one terrace falling into the other, the manhole is municipal sewage pipes, so can be connected to this if preferred above septic tank 😊
Thanks for the follow up.
I can't find you on facebook...?. I am very interested and driven to move to Central Portugal by the way in the next 12 months. I need a good guide and I think I have found the perfect candidate. Lol. I am about to become a published author, do art, sculpt and I'm also a soil analysist. Looking forward to getting out there and making contacts before I go.
The terrace ŵalls look amazing, very very old. How old do you think they might be?
Ohhh that’s a good question! I would guess 100 to 200 years, but could be longer and they have been repaired whenever needed!
Hi Joseph- up to how many m2 you can build up here? Thanks
Malvas is Mallow in English. :)
Hello Joseph! I am very seriously interested in this property. I have been communicating with Lucy via email, but is there any way we can speak about submitting an offer on this property? Is a video appointment an option? I just have a few questions and am a bit anxious that it might be sold before I arrive in Portugal on Dec. 2nd. Thank you!
Hello Joseph,
Is this farm.still available? What is the size?
Is this still available?
Is the vendor open to offers, Joe?
Every offer will always be passed on, please send us your offer by email to farmerforfun@outlook.com
18.25 comfrey
very nice setting ... could you ever get permission to extend that ruin to make 100sqm structure for permanent residence or thats out of question>?
Hello there,
It is certainly possible, but you would have to ask an architect if it can be extended by that amount. Currently as it stands it can be 46m2
malva is mallow
Ahhh that is amazing to know, thank you so much, are you a keen forager? :D
@@Farmerforfun Hi Joseph, thanks for your videos, I hope one day I'll buy one of these properties. Honestly I just went on Google and found the translation 😃 but I want to be a forager as well.
can one demolish this ruin and build a new house in the place?
Hi Joseph, thank you for uploading this video. How much would a house to build cost ( roughly) there? Would prefabricated house allowed
in this area?
Hi there, pre fab would totally be allowed! I work with a few trusted builders and I just had a quote for a similar ruin rebuild two weeks ago, a 30m2 build would cost €20,000, the same builder said that if a higher spec finish was to be implemented it could raise costs to €25,000 / €30,000. This pricing includes bathroom, all the fittings, shower, sink, toilet etc. kitchen, electrics, plumbing, flooring, ceiling, walls, doors, windows. it doesn’t include heating (I would suggest a wood burner to be honest), it also doesn’t include a septic tank, but I had one quoted a short while ago at 1,200, price including the tank and the installation.
That should hopefully give you an idea, if you have any other questions please let me know! 💕 😊 💕
@@Farmerforfun Joseph many thanks for the info.You are on fire my friend 👍😉
It was reallly tough but we managed to buy our plot of land, near Coimbra. It took every penny we have ever earned and had about 3 euros left after some unexpected tax's etc. is now connected to power, foundations in place, animal structures etc but no money left to actually put a house on it hahahahahhahaha
thank you for nice videos
how much the retailer s buy olive oil
from farmer
any information if possible thank you
Hello there, this year the price has increased to €10 per litre, more or less 😊
thank you for your information
l am looking for olive garden
to buy
looking at Portugal
and italy
is it easy to sell olive oil???
Yes incredibly so, it keeps so you just advertise it and wait for people to buy 😊 So long as you are priced sensibly you will sell it all within just a couple of months.
thank you
Joe, can you build something outside the ruin?
A block building or stone building probably not, a wooden cabin style building or a shed yes most definitely!
Yeah an outhouse..lol
❤❤😂😂🎉🎉🎉😢😢😮😮😅😅😊😊
malva = mallow
Was that a barn or a house?
Hi! A house, you can see this by the fireplace… Animal barns didn’t have fireplaces 😁 💕 Did you like the land?
How many acres is it?
very nice but too small
What sort of size would you be after? We just added a gorgeous 10 hectare farm to our website, with a large lake at the boundary - €75,000 with two buildings!
www.farmerforfun.com
That property would be perfect if it was over 3 hectares. Joe, I was not a huge fan of yours, but then I watched the episode from OK Portugal on the killing of your turkey, I could see in your face that was nothing you took lightly, and you gave those birds a caring humane death, I have so much respect for you and your process, Thank you!!
Bargain !!!
Hi there, thank you so much! It is a true gem this property :D
The Malva is a Mallow. Malva is a genus with many species. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malva
The property looks very nice.
