  November update: Almost at the 2 month mark, we're going into a winter phase that aims to be richly busy; many things will keep us active, creative in continuous growth, expanding our vision aiming to open our future meditation and retreat centre in Spring 2027. The upcoming winter phase will be comprised off the following;
  
  ~ Olive Harvest in the first 2 weeks of the month.
  ~ Water management systems are being planned and soon to be implemented.
  ~ Fruit forest to be planted during the course of the month.
  ~ Agroforesty maintenance.
  ~ First small gathering hosting people in the land.
  ~ Opening roads, pathways leading to key points on the land: Olive grove, vineyards, forest trails.
  
  
  Ciao! Welcome to our land restoration project. From Italian "The Roots", this is a little paradise located in a 66 hectares Tuscan estate, immersed in the UNESCO protected Val d'Orcia. We are surrounded by green forests, olive groves, small medieval villages and naturals thermal springs built in the Roman Empire, known for their healing and therapeutic properties. Over the years, the vision is to evolve through active work on land regeneration, water management, building community as well as hosting retreats and workshops. Through joint experience, we will learn from the land how to best honour and restore it.
  
  The work begins on September 7th until end of the year. Our focus during this initial stage will be to set the foundations for eventual planting and food production systems, as well as hosting. The land has been untouched for some years, we will bring back paths, prepare the soil for farming, plant herb and flower gardens, fruit forests and make space for habitable areas that we can enjoy on our free time. The land holds a beautiful energy, with your help we can revive it into a space to welcome many people in years to come.
  
  The team brings together old and new friends joining intention into this project;

His work experience revolves around hospitality and regenerative development entrepreneurship with an international background across hospitality operations and experiential design.

  ~ Ren, 35 and his pup Moa from México listens, observes and serves the land talking to the trees and flowers along the way.

  The tasks will consist in Ground work and House duties, which we will all share. The 5-hour/day schedule is set to be done in the morning, so your afternoon is free. Occasional small tasks may be requested for the constant improvement of the house and our living conditions. Personal time is always respected.
  
  We will prioritize long-term commitment with flexibility for those who want to come for shorter time. Gardeners, farmers, professionals and enthusiasts as well as students are encouraged to apply.
  
  Physical and emotional health is a non-negotiable, we ask for commitment and respect to the land and people who will share space with you. Nature has a way of showing us truly to ourselves, though healing and grounding is not always pretty, we seek to honour that while keeping a clear view that this work requires our best intention every day.
