    Beschreibung

    This is our new social project, located on one hectare of land planted with hazelnut trees, olive trees, and fruit trees.
    It is situated about a 20-minute walk from Calcata Vecchia, a unique and picturesque medieval village 50 minutes from Rome, famous for its narrow alleys and for being home to artists, sculptors, and musicians.
    The project is built around a simple but powerful idea:
    taking care of the land and taking care of people are deeply connected.

    It is a place where:

    social agriculture,
    ecological practices,
    community life,
    and nature-based learning
    come together in a shared process of growth.

    The project is still in its early construction phase, which makes this a unique opportunity for volunteers who want to be part of the foundation of something meaningful.

    🛠️ What we do and what we are developing:

    vegetable gardens and herbal gardens (for our personal use and for the volunteers)
    natural and low-impact spaces
    common areas for community life
    paths, green areas and outdoor spaces

    The tasks are hands-on, practical and connected to the rhythms of nature

    I’m Marianna. I’m a therapist and a biopsychosocial osteopath. and I live on the land with Omar, he is a chef and a family constellations facilitator. in the land lives 14 cats and 6 chickens, so volunteers should be real animal lovers! 🐱🐔 we speak Italian, Spanish and English

    Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

    Calcata Vecchia is a small and enchanting medieval village set on a volcanic rock, surrounded by woods, rivers and deep valleys. Over the years it has become a place of inspiration and refuge for artists, sculptors, musicians and travelers from all over the world.

    Walking through Calcata means getting lost in narrow stone alleys, arches, small squares and panoramic viewpoints, where time seems to slow down. The village hosts art studios, small galleries, craft shops and cafés, and often becomes the stage for cultural events, exhibitions, concerts and spontaneous artistic gatherings.

    For volunteers staying here, the area offers many opportunities to enjoy free time:

    Nature walks and hiking along the Treja Valley and the Treja River
    Swimming spots and waterfalls during the warmer months
    Yoga, meditation and artistic workshops organized locally
    Live music, theater and cultural events in and around the village

    Easy access to Rome, reachable in about 50 minutes, for museums, history and urban life

    Calcata Vecchia offers a rare balance between wild nature, creative energy and community life, making it an inspiring place for anyone seeking a meaningful volunteering experience close to nature and culture
