About your hosts

Andrea and Jeroen are your hosts here at Casalinho. Andrea’s PDC with Patrick Whitefield in 2011 inspired her so much that she insisted Jeroen also do one. A course was arranged with Lesley Martin later in 2011, and the first PDC taught at Casalinho was born! In 2012 our eldest son also achieved his PDC here, making him one of the youngest graduates at that time. We have now successfully hosted eleven PDCs here at Casalinho plus various other related workshops. Andrea took a Permaculture Teacher Training course with Looby Macnamara, Chris Evans and Tomas Remiarz in 2017. We’re now working towards the Diploma in Advanced Permaculture Design with Casalinho as our focus. Assisting us in our projects are the international volunteers that we host, a fabulous opportunity to bring permaculture to a wider audience and expose ourselves to new ideas and inspirations. The rest of this website should give you the flavour of our project.
