🌿 Bosco Sirio -regenerating the land, cultivating the future
Bosco Sirio is a dream growing from the roots of my land.
It is a project dedicated to the regeneration of 6,000 m² of soil, with the goal of creating a living space rich in biodiversity, where the plant, animal, mineral, magical, subtle, and human worlds coexist and nourish one another in a virtuous circle of harmony and beauty.
🌱 Why we do it
We are what we breathe, eat, see, touch, feel, and think.
For this reason, Bosco Sirio aims to be a place where people can regenerate, reconnect with their roots, and rediscover presence, allowing Nature itself to guide them toward an inner space of peace and deep connection.
🌳 How Bosco Sirio was born
The project began in 2021, when I decided to protect my grandparents’ 3,000 m² of land from urban development through the concrete act of creating a forest.
More than 100 native trees were planted—elms, maples, ashes, alders, oaks, as well as hazelnuts, cherry trees, and walnut trees—surrounded by aromatic and medicinal plants, pollinator-friendly flowers, and a vegetable garden inspired by the principles of biodynamics and permaculture.
Everything was planted following the design of a living mandala, composed of circles, arches, and flowing shapes that reflect Nature’s intelligence and its eternal cycles.
In December 2026, thanks in part to the support received through fundraising efforts, it became possible to purchase the land adjacent to the original plot. Today, Bosco Sirio extends across approximately 6,000 m².
A dream coming true deserves a true celebration. The new area was planted with the dreams of many people, represented by new trees, shrubs, and flowers. Three days of workshops were held, filling the space with the talents of each participant and the joyful presence of many hands and hearts.

The principles that shape the project
➰🌱➰ Regenerative Agriculture
Strip Mowing (Mosaic Mowing)
In spring, the grass grows back—and much more besides. Wildflowers and spontaneous plants rich in minerals emerge, providing valuable nutrients and energy when used in the kitchen during seasonal transitions.
Leaving portions of meadow unmown or mowing them in rotation provides fundamental benefits:
- A refuge for pollinators: Ensures a continuous supply of nectar and pollen for bees and other insects.
- A complete biological cycle: Allows plants to flower fully and disperse their seeds while preserving microfauna and earthworms.
- Soil regeneration: Long-term ground cover protects against erosion, retains moisture, and increases organic matter accumulation.
Even simply mowing while leaving 10 centimeters of growth can make a significant difference for the soil and its microfauna.
🌍 A place of sharing
One of Bosco Sirio Project’s deepest aspirations is to become a space for sharing—sharing passions, knowledge, and moments of genuine presence.
A place where we can meet one another with curiosity, discovering not only each other’s talents but also our vulnerabilities—those qualities that make us all so different and yet so alike.
Human.
- Would you like to spend some time for yourself, walking through the labyrinth among flowering herbs?
- Or would you like to offer a workshop, tell a story, perhaps one rooted in the traditions of this land?
- Would you simply like to relax?
Slow the whirlwind of thoughts by spending an hour clearing medicinal plants of competing weeds. As the plants regain their space, your mind may find its own.
Breathe. You are alive.
Get in touch, and we will organize it together.
🌟 Now it’s your turn!
Today, we want to involve everyone who feels called to do something that goes beyond personal interest.
A gesture that may not produce “instant” results, but one that will bear precious fruit for future generations and for visible and invisible creatures alike: birds, hedgehogs, fireflies—yes, they have already returned.
PRACTICAL WAYS TO SUPPORT
đź•° Donate your time
👉 Adopt a Tree 🌳
Just two hours a month can make a difference.
Come care for a tree, clear the surrounding vegetation, and water it during the summer months.
A small gesture, a great impact.
👉 Come cultivate harmony and beauty 🌸
The very first action taken when the field was still abandoned was to mow a circle and sow medicinal plants and pollinator-friendly flowers along its circumference.
Today, other spontaneous plants grow around it, and keeping the circle open, balanced, and harmonious requires care.
With the right attitude, this can become a true meditation.
Finding a home in the present moment, without the need to accomplish a goal; offering yourself a space where, through an act of care, you are primarily caring for yourself.
From this emerge the harmony and beauty that we can embody—just as Mother Nature shows us.
Come to the flower circle for as long as you wish.
💰 Donate a drop of the future – Support the life of the Forest
The land has been purchased—and this was made possible thanks to the generosity and heartfelt support of many people. 💛
Now Bosco Sirio continues to grow, and with it the care needed to keep it alive: mowing, watering, materials for supporting berry plants, protection for young trees from hares, and constant attention.
You can support us in a tangible way by choosing our handcrafted products—herbal balms, herbal teas, lip balms, infused oils, and more.
They are made by hand, using plants from this and other forests, in harmony with natural rhythms.
