Before we bought it, our land was abandoned.
The previous owners sold it to an agent who cut all 200+ trees to the base and sold it for firewood, then left the land to grow back wild and unloved.
We're on a mission to repair the damage that has been done to this little Spanish homestead, by pruning the trees in the hope they'll fruit abundantly once again, and improving the soil health by adding carbon and creating a fungal network to grow healthy trees and plants that will feed our family for years to come.
Thank you for following our journey.
¡Un gran abrazo desde Smithsdale Farm!

[ABOUT US]
We're Danny and Kate. In 2015 we moved from the UK to Barcelona, and after 8 years enjoying the busy city and sunny beaches we moved to the mountains to start a new adventure. We'll be renovating a town house, building an off grid cabin, restoring an old stone house and farming 12.5 acres of land with regenerative agriculture and permaculture practices in Catalunya, Spain.

Such a difference! And in less than a year. We’re really excited for how we can transform it over a few yearly layers!

Merry Christmas to the three of you. I am really curious to see what effect the woodchip mulch will have. No such thing as small woodchipper a hundred years ago, so it won't be part of a traditional approach to managing the kind of land where you are.

Unfortunately the “traditional” approach in our area is burning all the prunings, and having very bare earth beneath the olive trees, to easily maintain “weeds”, and make the collection of the olive harvest easier. Needless to say that’s not our preferred method 😉
