Quinta Vale do Tourão: rewilding with roots, people and time
On the slopes of Figueira de Castelo Rodrigo, in the heart of the Greater Côa Valley, Quinta Vale do Tourão is much more than a farm – that’s what makes it so special and committed to the Wild Côa Network, of which it is a member. It is the reflection of a conscious return to the land, where nature and people find their place again. After a decade in France, Telma Lourenço and Xavier Mendo decided to return to their origins and transform the family farm into a living space of reconnection – with the landscape, with rural heritage and with natural cycles.
