<div>On Monday 28th July, a wildfire swept through our small farm in rural Portugal, leaving behind a trail of destruction. Around 300 (about half) of our precious olive trees —over 100 years old — were lost, we hope the rest will recover. Also lost was our eucalyptus forest, cork oaks, and some vital farm equipment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our trailer and a large stock of animal feed were also destroyed. Thanks to my husband’s courage and quick thinking, our sheep shed and farmhouse were saved — but the damage is heartbreaking.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’ve poured our hearts into this land, nurturing trees that not only sustain us, but are part of a living landscape we love and protect. Now we are facing the enormous task of starting over: replacing trees, rebuilding infrastructure, and ensuring our animals have the feed they need to get through the coming months.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re reaching out for help to raise funds to:
</div>
<div>•	Replant olive, and cork trees
</div>
<div>•	Replace lost animal feed
</div>
<div>•	Repair or replace farm equipment and tools
</div>
<div>•	Rebuild essential infrastructure for our animals and land
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any support — whether financial or by sharing our story — means the world to us. We are determined to recover, replant, and restore our farm, and every contribution helps us take a step forward.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for standing with us in this difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With heartfelt gratitude,
</div>
<div>Sarah &amp; Victor
