The first moment we drove onto the 5-acre property we knew the land, trees, home and architecture, spoke to us as no other home had. Three months later it was ours to share and the work began!
We began by cleaning up the grounds that had been neglected for close to 20 years. It was important to us that this property be sustainable and so by using well water for our irrigation, we planted and lined the driveway with 100 30-year producing olive trees. We built and planted an organic vegetable garden, 1,000 lavender, 2,000 rosemary plants and different varieties of fruit trees. By using solar panels and solar lights we maintain a lifestyle by staying off the grid.
