Program Details

You’ll join a small sustainable land-regeneration project in Sardinia. The goal is to turn an under-maintained garden/orchard area into a productive, beautiful space using low-impact methods (mulching, composting/vermicompost, water-wise gardening, re-use of materials).
You’ll learn practical skills: soil improvement, seasonal planting, basic pruning, setting up simple supports/trellises, and small DIY upgrades (paths, garden beds, light painting/maintenance).
We work together in a relaxed and respectful way. I’ll explain each task clearly, show you how to do it safely, and we’ll plan the week based on weather and priorities.
