~ Long day, many rocks, opening the #Earth No tears from the sky ~ One day, three #swales (each approx 40m long, 1.5m wide, 50cm deep) Why? - To harvest #rainwater and passively irrigate what will soon become a Food Forest. To soak as much winter rain into the ground and store it as long as possible during the summer months. Looking forward for the first rains to observe the swales in function Next step? - Sowing ground cover, nitrogen fixing and dynamic accumulating plants We are transforming a degraded and compacted field into a self-maintaining #ecosystem rich in #biodevirsity. Now that this big job is done and paid, another big job is on the way: propagating and buying shrubs and trees. Any little help is highly appreciated. If you appreciate our work, play and commitment, and want to support us please follow the link in bio to either make a donation or to share the project with your circles :) Full of #Gratitude for having the privilege of doing what we are doing <3 #swales #earthworks #permaculture #rainwaterharvesting #foodforest #forestgardening #foodforestdesign #passiveirrigation #selfsufficiency #sustainability #sustainableliving #naturalfarming #healingthroughdesign #healingtheearth #gaia

Love for #nature comes also in the form of community work. Helping and supporting our elders wherever and whenever the need arises is a pillar of nature connection and human connection. Today three generations got together for the sake of #love , stacking and storing the winter stock of #firewood for our hamlet's elder, Guerrino! So much joy and #gratitude for these memorable moments of #unity , #support and #unconditionallove #natureconnection #elders #humanconnection #hamlet #traditions #togetherness #help #devotion #teamwork #apennines #mountainliving #cerreto #varsi

Walking in nature can never be boring. Wonder and magic permeate every tiny movement, every screech and crack, every flap of the butterfly's wings. Surrounded by the elders' wisdom, cuddled by the softness and scent of the green musk of beeches and oaks. Seconds that seem minutes, hours become days and life is longer, richer, brighter each time. Places and spaces that allow this connection must be preserved, protected and acknowledged as SACRED. For it is there that life begins, thrives and ends. #naturewalks #natureconservation #italianapennines #devilsbolete #mushrooms #ecology #ecopychology #wildtherapy #life #earth #oneness #interconnection #nature #trees #musk #savetheforest #thetreeandthewater #naturesanctuary #energy #sacred #Varsi #Italy

Nature Connection is 'simplifying', it is 'slowing down', 'listening', 'opening', 'observing'. It's not something that requires learning or studies. It is within each and all of us, within every cell of our bodies - and it calls for attention, for release, for connection. It can be done anywhere at anytime. With the birds in the sky with the sun, with a flower, with a human, with the wind. All it takes is few moments of silence, few moments of peace. #natureconnection #thetreeandthewater #ancientwisdom #monumenttrees #pachamama #interbeing #oneness #naturewalks #gaia #bees #natureobservation #ourorigins #listening #slowingdown
