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

To welcome, receive and host volunteers and friends is a profoundly enriching experience Connection, support, togetherness, sharing, holding space, transformation, inspiration and sense of community are just few of the many benefits of the past week in the company of three beautiful, transparent beings that offered their help and support for #thetreeandthewater :) A sense of deep gratitude permeates every stone and corner of the house, every plant that's been planted and nurtured, every animal that's been loved, admired, respected or listened to, every cherry that's been picked, and every little cell of my body :) Thank you <3 #gratitude #volunteering #helpx #permaculture #community #support #interbeing #natureconnection #trust #togetherness #inspiration #friends #peoplecare #earthcare #fairshare #coliving #mandala #nature @varsi

First trial at growing potatoes without touching the soil Inspired by @stefansobkowiak Select location (potatoes need min. 4hrs of sun to be productive) Spread grass clippings Cover well with dump cardboard (even two layers) Cover with straw or grass clippings (15/20cm high) Make holes all the way through the cardboard Place one sprouted potato (I experimented cutting many shoots from one seed potato to get more plants from one) in each hole Water the whole thing Harvest when the plant dies by lifting the bed and picking the new potatoes from above the ground #nodig #potatoes #permaculture #permacultureorchard #inspiration #nodiggardening #naturalfarming #lowmaintanance #noirrigation #moisture #growingpotatoes #growyourownfood #selfsufficiency #freefood #foodisfree #lasgnagarden
