When we think of fungi, we often picture mushrooms, yet these visible fruiting bodies represent less than 10% of the vast fungal kingdom. Beneath our feet, fungi form an intricate underground network—often called the "wood wide web"—that drives nutrient cycling, improves soil health, and supports plant communication.
We harness the power of native fungi to regenerate soil, improve plant resilience, and restore biodiversity. By working with the fungal networks already adapted to our landscape, we accelerate natural healing processes, creating a thriving, self-sustaining ecosystem rooted in the intelligence of nature.
Regenerative Growing – Our land follows permaculture principles, producing nutrient-dense fruit, vegetables, flowers, and mushrooms for our workshops and retreats.
Fermentation & Soil Health – Microbial life is key to our approach, from bioactive compost teas that enrich the soil to kefir, kombucha, and sourdough that nourish the gut.
Foraging & Wild Landscapes – We explore the land for wild edibles, restore wildflower meadows, and cultivate diverse habitats to support biodiversity.
Beekeeping & Pollinators – Our beehives play a vital role in maintaining a thriving ecosystem, ensuring pollination and improving the health of our farm.
Our probiotic is time outside. Growing food in the walled garden and feeding both our soil health and our gut health.
“To create a healthy flourishing microbiome, we must nurture the land that feeds our food.”
