Spring Escape
Description
As the summer comes to a close and the leaves begin to fall, join us for a special retreat at TheVagar Belmonte for a transformative "Soul Harvesting" experience. This October, we invite you to prepare for the winter season by reconnecting with nature in the serene surroundings of Serra da Esperança. This retreat will be particularly unique as it features an exciting mushroom picking adventure in the lush forests of Serra da Esperança. You'll have the opportunity to forage for wild mushrooms, guided by local experts who will share their knowledge about the different varieties and their benefits. But the experience doesn't end in the forest. Back at TheVagar, we'll host a cooking class where you'll learn to prepare delicious dishes using the mushrooms you've gathered. This hands-on culinary experience will not only teach you new cooking skills but also deepen your connection to the natural world and the food it provides. Join us for this enriching retreat to close the summer with gratitude and prepare for the winter ahead. Embrace the beauty of the changing seasons, learn new skills, and nourish your soul in the tranquil setting of TheVagar Belmonte. We look forward to welcoming you to this special retreat.
