Agriexperience

LIKE ONCE AGAIN!
the life of the forest dwellers

Become a forest dweller for a day!

We have created a completely new experience for you.

Imagine immersing yourself in a world where time seems to stand still, where nature reigns supreme and every step brings you closer to a deep connection with the earth. The experience of living in the woods, as they once did, is a journey that awakens the senses and nourishes the soul. In an age where we are surrounded by the frenzy of modern life, returning to the roots of natural life is an experience that can transform us.

In the heart of the forest, every day is an adventure.

The majestic trees, with their dancing branches
in the wind, tell stories of a distant past. The freshness of the air, full of scents of resin and damp earth, is a balm for the body and mind. Walking along natural paths, listening to the birds singing and the rustling of leaves, is a way to rediscover the beauty of simple life. Life in the woods is not only a return to nature, but also an opportunity to learn ancient traditions. Learning to collect wild herbs, to recognize which are edible and which are not. You can therefore experience first-hand how people once lived in the woods, what tools were most used for working and eating, how the day went and above all enter a house from the 1700s that has remained intact to the present day,

this is the experience for you!

Starting from the village of Prea we will take a walk in the woods, we will show you how alive an environment was that today seems abandoned.
Once we reach the house in the woods at 1050 meters above sea level, we will explain to you what the daily work activities were and, above all, we will let you TRY them!
We will show you what was and is needed to LIVE:
BASED ON THE SEASON we will show you how to light the stove, how to cut grass for the animals, how to sharpen tools and what they are used for, how and what to grow.
We will also let you try to collect edible herbs or chestnuts and many other old activities that will reconnect you with nature.

We will tell you how the history and philosophy of our small mountain farm fit perfectly within
of this almost magical forest.

The common thread will be the protection of biodiversity through totally natural cultivation and transformation methods, which hark back to what was once done, but look confidently to the future if they find real people who carry them forward with passion.
