O jovem pastor de Covas do Monte e o maior rebanho comunitário de aldeia

• Right in the heart of São Pedro do Sul, the village of Covas do Monte holds secrets of a deep Portugal, where ancient traditions resist the passage of time. It is here that Luís Tavares, a young man of almost 30, dedicates himself to shepherding. 🌄🐐 • In this unique community, there is one of the largest communal village herds, which about 15 years ago numbered approximately 2500 goats. Each family identifies their animals through unique markings, perpetuating an ancestral custom that strengthens community ties. However, Covas do Monte is not immune to the challenges that plague the interior of the country. Depopulation and the scarcity of support for young people are realities that Luís faces daily. Still, it is in contact with the animals that he finds his greatest satisfaction, keeping alive the traditions he inherited. 🏞✨ • In this episode of "Villages with History," we invite you to get to know the life of Luís Tavares and immerse yourself in the stories that make Covas do Monte a place of pure authenticity. 🌱 📹| Are you curious?
