Aspen with chooks

Thank you both so much for your welcome to Semilla Besada for the vine pruning workshop.... Its wonderful to know that there are people like yourselves who are living an authentic life on the land and I know that I could learn a great deal from you.... I thought the workshop was very good value for money and I really enjoyed the clove and apple muffins too!

Skill Building Workshops

An opportunity to benefit from our professional knowledge and experience to help you develop the necessary skills to manage your land.

Are you wondering how to prune your trees?
Would you like alternatives to chemical sprays?
Are you concerned about water shortages?

The Mediterranean environment requires much more careful management than that in northern Europe. As a result new skills and knowledge are required if you are going to create the best outcomes for you and your land.
