Harvest Season in the Algarve
Join Chef Wayne and his wife,Jenn Lucene Smith, for our Fall Harvest Yoga, Culinary & Wine Retreat in Portugal’s stunning Algarve region. This is a week to slow down and savor the season with daily yoga, beautiful autumn landscapes, and chef-crafted meals inspired by the local harvest.
We’ll explore regional wines, gather around long, relaxed dinners, and move our bodies each morning in a way that feels grounding and nourishing. It’s not about over-scheduling or over-selling; it is just good food, good wine, meaningful connection, and time to breathe in one of the most beautiful places on earth.
