The areas around the windmill and nearby river are abundant with beautiful flowers and plants, but not only are they beautiful, many of these wild plants have health benefits too. Friend of the windmill, Victoria Iles, is a trained herbalist who speaks fluent English and French. If you would like a guided tour of the local vicinity, identifying medicinal plants and learning how to use them to help us live healthier lives, we highly recommend a Wild weed walk and talk. The price is 70 euros for approximately two hours. Alternatively you can visit Victoria’s medicinal garden in nearby Mouriscas (20 minutes by car) and have a guided tour of her little oasis (same price applies). You can view her Facebook page here.
