  Description

  I'm Flavia and I would like to give a second life to my childhood home. To do this I need hands, your hands. Two of these are the hands of an artist, Selenia, and two are hands of Giorgia. But these are not enough!
  My home is a corner of paradise in Salento, Puglia, with a garden and three houses, where I imagine our forces for a common project.
  Management, wisdom, creativity, manuality... These are our qualities, nourished by the common desire to see natural products wholly created with what Nature gives us.
  Last but not least, we want to share with our guests our knowledge and let them taste the fruits of our work.
  Exploiting what grows spontaneously from the ground available, our goal will be to create natural products that can be used for cooking, cosmetic and phyto-therapeutic fields.
  
  You will discover for example that the rosemary make you way in the path of the residence may also be used for your hair, and magic of magic, it will be the same you feel while you are massaged by the beautiful and soft hands of Flavia.
  
  The herbalist Giorgia will be at your disposal, with and for you, to teach you how and why this wonderful world work.
  
  Sweet seasonal figs will be a pleasure for palate and skin as well. And why not discover the secrets to staying young in simple steps with the help of Mother Nature and a pinch of fantasy? These and much more once the project gets the kick off. Your kick off!
  
  And that's not all, because our exceptional artist Selenia will show you how the woods and shells founded on the beach can become beautiful and unique artworks.
  
  In our labo-residence you will be able to combine the relax of a pleasant holiday and at the same time learn an art that certainly will never go out of fashion: the art of creating with few things comes from... Nature.
  
  Our gates will be open to all: big and small, two and four-legged, walking, car, motorbike or wheelchair.
  In order that the project become a reality what we need is:
  - use the building already present and fill it with tools and crafts (like a balance, a distiller, an autoclave, various bowls and containers, etc.);
  - expand the cultivated areas of the state favouring plant growth of native flora: myrtle, rosemary, capper, fig tree...
  Means and workforce will be essential!
  
  Just little for our project to become something concrete. Everything else will come by itself.
  
  The first step is to clean the garden and do hard work in the house. So I need hard people!
  
  Is it clear that I need your help?
