About

The Miranda Donkeys are known as ‘burros’ both in Portugal and in Spain, and the only donkey breed officially recognised in Portugal is the Miranda Donkey - once widely used as the ‘poor man’s motor’ in the agricultural area of northeast Portugal called the Terra de Miranda, helping farmers with ploughing and carrying goods.

Our farmer has always been passionate about nature, today she is the third generation that combines tradition and innovation, since she has always seen her grandfather and her father grazing the sheep at the farm, today she is the one who values her endogenous product , with the milk of his own sheep, he created several handmade soaps from sheep's milk.

Here you will also discover an organic almond grove, as well as an organic olive grove.
