The farm is rugged and sturdy shoes are recommended. We will be walking on uneven terrain at times. Please let us know if you have questions.  \n\n\n\nThis event includes: The bus trip from Porto to the farm\, welcome and presentation by Claudia from Animais de Rua and Quinta das Aguias\, a vegan lunch prepared by our farm hosts and a post lunch guided tour and viewing of the animal sanctuary and herb farm. \n\n\n\nPrice: Members – 65€Non – Members – 70€All proceeds will go to Animais de Rua and Quinta das ÁguiasIf you are unable to attend or would like to donate to the portable AC unit\, please consider making a donation here. \n\n\n\nAs temperatures rise\, Porto Kind has been made aware by Animais de Rua of an emergent need.Street Dogs and Cats are highly stressed when trapped and transported in their cage/trap to the vet for sterilisation and/or treatment.   Animais de Rua use rented vans for transportation which unfortunately\, do not have air conditioning in the section used to load the traps.  Both cats and dogs rapidly overheat\, and this is especially prevalent in hot summer temperatures and can result in life threatening heatstroke for the captured animals. To mitigate this\, Animais de Rua is in urgent need of a portable AC unit that can be used in a van\, to ensure safe transportation for animals captured. They have found a unit for 437€.The purchase of a ticket on the bus tour or any donation would be gratefully appreciated to assist in the purchase of the AC unit in order deliver the animals as comfortably as possible. You can donate here. Thank you! \n\n\n\nVegan lunch provided by our hosts : Appetizers:Corn bread and hummusMain course buffet:ColeslawMixed salad with wild flowers from the QuintaCold pasta salad with peas\, dried tomatoes and vegetablesBean loafFocaccia \n\n\n\nDessert:Orange MuffinsSweet Rice \n\n\n\nDrinks:Flavoured water (with herbs from the Quinta)LemonadeWine (if desired)After lunch we will split into 2 groups to tour and learn about the sanctuary and what makes Quinta das Águias so special. *Please be advised that the terrain can be uneven and rugged.Questions and comments can be emailed to events@portokind.org \n\n\n\nInstagram
