What we do

We are a new project in Portugal with a big dream: To build a healing biotope to live, work and create. Bridging into a regenerative culture, balancing self-realization and service to all to unfold everyone’s fullest potential.
We are focusing on a multi-generational approach where people from different backgrounds come together to experiment, develop and transform through various projects within the dream. We aim to live in a regenerative culture, embracing life with gratitude, respect and love. Our vision is a lush and lively landscape that feeds and nourishes an active, healthy & healing, creative community.
We are still in the pioneering phase – which means in a very emencepatory and powerful phase. It is now that we can greatly shape the project and define it’s culture and vision. Also now, we need plenty of hands-on support to realize the dream that we all hold true in our hearts: A place where we can fully discover and be ourselves, living our individual lives as part of a greater puropseful organism. Where we can make our living with what we most believe in and what makes us happy. Where we learn from each other and support one another’s dreaming.
We aim to become a place where people get the space to transition from one (busy, stressed,…) lifestyle to another. Where they can feel safe to reconnect with themselves, the natural world and their purpose. We envision being a place of learning (permaculture, plant-based cooking, natural building, bodywork, personal development, arts…) where people can take courses or just come and learn by doing. We also dream to be a place to see that it is in fact possible to live in a peaceful and regenerative way.
Grateful that our home is near the ocean. AlmaOhana is whatever it’s people are.

BioconstrucciĂłn de TALLER con carpinterĂ­a de armar

La Escuela de BioconstrucciĂłn Los Guindales propone un aprendizaje practico de bioconstrucciĂłn durante todo el año, en la finca de la ecoaldea Los Guindales (AlgatocĂ­n – Málaga). Para mejorar las instalaciones del proyecto, vamos a construir un taller de carpinterĂ­a. Durante el mes de agosto, lanzamos un llamamiento excepcional para poder avanzar la armadura con madera redonda. Se van a cuadrar troncos, a trazar en el suelo las varias piezas para luego trazar en las piezas mismas las cotas importantes, a cortar las piezas haciĂ©ndoles encajes tradicionales, a montar y a levantar los cinco pĂłrticos previstos. Vamos a seguir la misma organizaciĂłn grupal que solemos tener ; hacemos turnos diarios de cocina, trabajamos de las 8h a las 10h, desayunamos hasta las 11h, y seguimos luego hasta el almuerzo a las 14h. Por la tarde seguiremos trabajando unas dos horas. Paralelamente, estamos cuidando una huerta y tres cabras. Para mas info sobre nuestra rutina y condiciones os dejo el enlace a seguir. https://escueladebioconstruccionlosguindales.wordpress.com/formacion/ AquĂ­ somos un equipo fijo de cuatro personas llevando la escuela. Siembre habrán un mĂ­nimo de dos personas con experiencia para llevar el taller del mes de agosto. TenĂ©is a disposiciĂłn un terreno grande para poner tiendas de campana, tambiĂ©n hay una yurta segĂşn las disponibilidades. Pedimos una aportaciĂłn de 120 euros para el mes entero o 70 euros para dos semanas para cubrir los gastos de comida. Caso tengan cualquier duda, no hesiten en hacĂ©rnosla saber. Pueden contactarnos a travĂ©s de: bi*************************@***il.com
