Description
We live in an isolated small holding in nature, surrounded by olive trees, walnuts, almonds, lots of fruit trees and woodland.
There are various plots where we practice different natural agricultural methods, some raised beds with mulching, other areas using seed-balls and green manures.
We are creating a living garden that not only gives us to eat but is a wonderful place to stay. Last year we built a little pond with lilies, lotus flowers, keeping the system in natural harmony.
We make our own compost and plants for the garden.
Three cats, two hens and a rooster that live in a chicken tractor.
We have a solar cooker, outdoor kitchen, compost toilet and outside shower.
Possible to stay in a tent or in your camper.
Tiny houses coming soon with your help!
We are an English-Italian couple.
Anthony has been in Italy since 1998.
We are artists, jugglers and video makers and practice yoga and taiji.
We host events and meetups on Natural Agriculture, Sharing Circles, Personal Growth, Yoga and Playfulness.
We are an hour and half north of Rome with frequent connections by train to Rome and directly to Fiumicino airport.
