Ongoing projects

Trail restoration works leading to the abandoned village of Aramunt Vell.

• Clearing and cleaning of the path.
• Aramunt Vell was a medieval village, fortified with two gates and fully paved. The Camí de la Costa, which ran from Font Vella to the village center, was entirely stone-paved. We have restored the stone paving in front of our house as an example of what it once was.
  When there was no water in the village, people and animals would frequently travel up and down the trail to fetch water and drink at the spring. This path is part of the village’s history. We even have an old document stating that if an animal defecated in front of Casa Jaumet, the dung would become the property of the house —a reflection of the hardships of those times. Nowadays, the trail is mainly used by curious tourists visiting the old village.

The tasks to be carried out within the Casa Jaumet space are as follows:

• Renovation of Casa Jaumet. The house is habitable but the top floor remains unfinished. The plan is to build a large space to serve as a nature classroom, a place for learning and outreach, with a kitchen-workshop, a bathroom, and rooms to accommodate up to 15 people. The project is currently under construction, halfway done.
• Caring for the fields around Casa Jaumet and making use of the land’s produce. Farming tasks are part of our daily life.
• Cultivation of traditional agricultural varieties: Reviving the cultivation of nearly forgotten garden crops: sweet acorn oaks, large-fruited jujube trees, striped figs...
• Marketing of agricultural products. We have all the permits to sell our products, and you can buy them by contacting us: honey, olive oil, saffron, almonds, walnuts, fruit, and vegetables from the garden...
• Edible forest: Working on an inventory of wild edible plants in our area and studying their use in cooking.
