This week we have been very busy! After working in the garden for an afternoon I was a little overwhelmed by all the small jobs that needed doing, so it was time to make a list. In this video I get about half of it done. I mulched the potato bed, planted, weeded, pruned, and mulched some more. In between all this we also caught two swarms, both in inconvenient places.

New here? My name is Lea and I live with my partner Maarten, our toddler Puck and baby Bo on our land in Central Portugal. We left the rat race in the Netherlands in 2018 and moved south in our old campervan. Two 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.

We were amazed to see the videos of San Sebastian de Garabandal in the Cantabrian mountains in northern Spain basically isolated for centuries, living on pastures and herding livestock, sheep some cows/ milk and Cheese i would imagine…Another way of living, from a long time ago but amazing miracles in 1960- 65
By Gott you are the most courages people of faith i've seen on in a long time…pleased to have found your channel.. God bless you and your work
I see your post and I think whew now I can relax. I get to enjoy your process, my favorite pace – your music always makes me smile!
Lists are only made for the joy of crossing things off of it! ❤️❤️❤️
Parenting, cooking, gardening, cleaning, laundry adds up to a lot!
Beautiful land and beautiful weather. Two swarms is fantastic! I enjoy watching your garden grow in size and seeing the harvest.
You are back in your figure. Looking happy, that's good!! Happy week!!
I hope both swarms are staying. Lots of flowers to feed them. Your greenhouse tomatoes are looking very healthy. I’m glad you are planting in there.
The birds are tweeting so lovely in the trees. :):) You both are doing a fantastic job!!
Your seedlings look great! And the tomatoes in the greenhouse are really thriving, wow. I like your list, its such a nice accomplished feeling to tick things off!
nice
The good old "honey do" list…the more you do the longer it gets…things are coming along & looking good…soon you'll reap the rewards of your labors with potatoes and apples/pears & all the other things in the garden
I love you guys! I was the horticulture person for Chicago's First Food Forest. I admire your balance of life and gardening, we learn so much by "just doing". Happy Days to you and your family.
Your two can pull off most anything!!
The bees! Wow! Pretty amazing 🐝

Lots of admiration for you both, thank you for keeping us in the loop.
