Ciricea, a jewel nestled in the heart of the Apennines. A community that fascinated us with its contagious joy, its cuisine populated by adults and children, especially in the evening when dinner time approaches, always delicious and abundant, announced by the sound of the horn. A community that is able to organize engaging holistic events connected to self-care, relationships and nature that are a source of inspiration and an opportunity for learning for many souls near and far from them.

Ciricea is a tribe where every age is represented, and is made up of families, mothers with children, singles who decide in a circle, grow together and co-create. Ciricea is a hotbed of creativity, a workshop of self-production – soaps, biscuits, essential oils – a laboratory of humanity.

From the historic headquarters of Villa di Piteccio it has moved to Tarole, reuniting with the twin community born a couple of years ago and still in progress: immersed in the greenest and deepest woods, it is a place that gives the possibility of regenerating in contact with nature under the gentle care of the two centuries-old chestnut trees, the fir grove, the vegetable gardens, the greenhouses, the mud house, the source of delicious water.
