FarmReal is based on a disruptive community herd concept as a response to curb uncontrolled vegetation growth and ensure the recovery of soil fertility.

In addition to assuming an essential role in the prevention of forest fires, this platform allows users to be “virtual shepherds” of real goats. Users can follow the day-to-day life of the adopted goats, monitoring their behavior and socialization through updated photos and videos, their GPS location, as well as the area and amount of vegetation deforested by the herd. 

Ferraria de São João is a village in the municipality of Penela that belongs to the Aldeias do Xisto and it is part of a demarcated area of traditional ancestral products, namely in the region of Protected Designation of Origin (P.D.O) of Rabaçal Cheese.
Due to the unique geomorphological characteristics of Ferraria de São João, the contact with nature and local people provide unique moments of rest and leisure.
Located at the southern end of the Serra da Lousã, the village is now taking advantage of the presence of new neighbors who are committed to recovering old traditions, popular and religious festivals.
