RicaVida is a community of theoretical and practical research for the reunion between culture and nature, in a context of transition from ignorant consumerism and unconscious exploitation of resources to sustainable consumption and autonomous production.

We intend to implement measures to regenerate ecosystems and increase biodiversity. It is our aim to raise awareness about natural values. We want to be a model of biodiversity, an example of regeneration of the Alentejo forest.

Tips

  • This is an environmental regeneration project.

  • In 2020 we planted 600 species of trees and bushes.
