Sa Ritirada
The Project
WHAT WE AIM TO DO
In the pursuit of a harmonious and sustainable lifestyle, we finally decided on a piece of land situated between urbanisation and one of the oldest and largest forests of Europe. We are currently working to help the land transition into a more bio-diverse and 'wild' place that can provide comfort and sustenance for both humans and animals. We bought the land as an abandoned fruit orchard that grew a variety of citrus trees. By deploying permaculture techniques and food forest design we plan to increase the resilience of the ecosystem to drought periods while making for a more interesting and bio-diverse place where all lifeforms are valued as integral parts of the whole system.
Sustainable Living Amidst Sardinia's Beauty
But our mission goes beyond cultivating our own oasis. It extends to offering transformative experiences for those seeking respite from urban life and a connection with nature. Our endeavor combines the principles of ecological sustainability with a commitment to enhancing mental well-being through guided work-away holidays. We invite individuals weary of city life to immerse themselves in the therapeutic embrace of nature, seeking solace and renewal amidst the tranquility of our sustainable haven.
Recognizing the transformative power of nature, we extend a unique opportunity for individuals dealing with personal hardships to participate in guided work-away holidays. These structured programs provide a nurturing environment for self-reflection and growth. Through hands-on experiences in sustainable living, participants learn valuable skills while cultivating a deeper connection with the land. Our professional guidance ensures a supportive atmosphere, fostering personal development and resilience.
AN INVITATION TO LEARN AND CONTRIBUTE
We also welcome individuals who seek to learn about sustainable practices and contribute to our mission. Our homestead opens its doors to those eager to engage in meaningful work while immersing themselves in the art of cultivating abundance from the land. Whether it's planting, harvesting, or tending to the various aspects of our sustainable lifestyle, participants gain valuable insights into the symbiotic relationship between humanity and nature.
In essence, our sustainable homestead on Sardinia represents not just a lifestyle choice but a shared journey towards well-being and ecological harmony. Through guided work-away holidays and opportunities for hands-on learning, we invite individuals to reconnect with themselves and the environment, fostering a sense of purpose and abundance in the process. Join us in cultivating change and embracing a sustainable future in the heart of Sardinia.
