Connection to Nature
One of the first things that caused me to fall in love with Quinta Carvalhas when I first saw it in 2016 was the abundance of trees: a variety of mature trees close to the barns and farmhouse which would later be the foundation of the meditation garden, as well as the natural cork oak forest on the other side of the road. This was priceless – finding these precious tall trees – as they are an integral part of the peaceful energy of the farm.
