A therapeutic garden
An accessible, sensory space where growing food becomes part of care journeys, intergenerational encounters and everyday village life.
LAND · WILD NATURE · AUTONOMY
Regeneration means
bringing life back.
We do not simply want to cultivate part of the property. We want to rebuild fertility, biodiversity and relationships capable of nourishing the place over time.
Permaculture is the framework through which we see water, soil, plants, animals and human presence as one system. From this, in stages, will grow a therapeutic garden, an agroforestry system and production aimed at increasing food autonomy.
Agroforestry and preserves
Trees, shrubs and crops work together to protect the soil and diversify harvests. Over time we want to process part of the produce, directly or with authorised partner workshops.
4 hectares of chestnut grove
The chestnut grove and other woodlands are resources to care for: chestnuts, biodiversity and firewood for village use, through responsible forest management and in accordance with regulations.
BEFORE, AFTER AND INTENDED USES
The property as a
living mosaic.
One side is more productive and therapeutic; the other remains open for larger events. The woodland is a presence to expand and care for.
Therapeutic garden and agroforestry
On the side best suited to cultivation we envision gardens, an orchard and agroforestry systems. It will be a productive, educational space and part of care journeys.
The areas shown on the photograph indicate the intended relationship between functions, not cadastral boundaries or an executive plan. Positions, surfaces, access and capacities will be defined through surveys, soil analysis and technical assessments.
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR · LAND STEWARDSHIP
Someone who wants to
care for the land.
We are looking for a person, couple or small group with experience—or a serious path already underway—in permaculture, horticulture, agroforestry or rural management.
- Design and tend the therapeutic garden and agroforestry system
- Organise harvests, preservation and future products
- Care for the chestnut grove, woodlands and reforestation
- Move the village towards greater self-sufficiency
- Share knowledge with residents, guests and the local area
The role, form of collaboration and any residency path will be shaped together and remain distinct.
