Here is a Portuguese language permaculture resource for you. In the 1980s, Bill Mollison taught a PDC in the United States which was recorded and then transcribed. It is available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese (the Spanish and Portuguese translations were done by volunteers).

They are all linked at http://www.barkingfrogspermaculture.org/publications.htm .

THey are in the public domain, they may be freely downloaded and copied and distributed. This work is sponsored by Dan Hemenway (no relation nearer than colonial times to Toby Hemenway), with whom I studied permaculture. He studied with Bill and was one of the early teachers authorized by Bill to teach the PDC. He is no longer active in teaching, but his website remains online with these free resources.

IIRC, the Portuguese translation was done by a volunteer from Brazil.

I've joined a team to co-author a book in portuguese to help "think the
village with permaculture eyes"
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/298793337_Amoreiras_-_Permacultura_para_uma_Aldeia

It was presented at the first portuguese PC convergence in 2014.

Location:
mediterranean climate, ongoing for + 500 years
village "Aldeia das Amoreiras" about 300 people
municipality "Odemira"
Portugal

I was hired to work there for about 1 year, 2011.

Welcome feedback.
