‘The Walnut Project’
If we are to regenerate the land and oceans, then we need to collaborate with nature and give her a helping hand. It is this partnering with and learning from nature that will allow us to speed up the process of healing the Earth.
In every town, village, city and country environment there are people who want to look after land and there is land that needs to be regenerated.
Here at ‘The Walnut Project’ we are doing just that.
‘The Walnut Project’ is a collaboration of
Sow & Grow Regenerative and
Ordanics (Danny Williams) along with two other team members George and Giuliano.
The Walnut Project is not just a place, it is an imagining, a vision and model for a way of life.
We have started to regenerate the land, already hosted two work parties, taught community members to sow seeds and planted out vegetables, fruit bushes and trees, as well as building a kitchen area and compost toilet.
We have a big vision for the future with some of our goals being
- Regenerating the land so it become self-regulating and over the years we reduce all our inputs.
- Planting the Forest Garden, which will be our long term investment
- Creating a Market Garden to eventually sell produce to local residents
- Create a Permaculture Garden which illustrates its framework, ethics and principles
- Create our own compost and naturally made amendments to use on site
- Have a greenhouse area for a nursery, to supply the walnut and local residents gardens.
- Create and care for a wild area, which will give sanctuary to local wildlife.
- Host workshops and celebrations for the community to teach the community to connect with the land, learn valuable skills and find and contribute their passions.
We will be opening our land to community members in the coming months, where will host more work parties for people to experience the land and to begin hosting workshops. The workshops will be reasonably priced, including lunch and we will be teaching valuable skills for those that want to learn more about growing food, foraging and making natural garden amendments.

Holistic Coaching
The health and happiness of human beings is in direct relation to the environment that we live in. When we have beautiful natural surroundings we instantly feel better, our life force is supported by this relationship to nature. When we are in artificial surroundings our emotional, mental and physical state are effected quite dramatically. This is supported by the fact that mental health issues are higher when people are not connected to and surrounded by natural settings.
In order to benefit from and contribute to nature we need to give ourselves the space, time and energy to connect with our inner nature. We can do this in many ways to gradually take us step by step towards a healthier, happier and more abundant life.
Creating a regenerative mindset and heart space will allow us to find that connection within ourselves. Once we have started on this journey, we can begin to create the environment that our heart desires. This may mean a drastic transformation- moving home, changing career or finding a new community. You can also create your vision right where you are now.
Through this inner transformation, we can find our purpose-this can become our contribution to our community.
The first step is to seek within what we seek without and transform our vision into reality.
Many of the obstacles and barriers we experience as adults are a result of us being out of natural balance. Our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health, as well as our social interactions are interconnected. Ultimately all of these obstacles we experience are rooted within the connection to ourselves, others and to natural cycles of life.
To live more simply is the key to health and happiness. Being in synergy with nature empowers us to learn more about ourselves and what we truly want, rather than fulfilling the expectations of others or ourselves that are based on an unbalanced societal paradigm.
What is Holistic Coaching?
I provide a Regenerative & Holistic service which is grounded in an holistic approach to finding the solutions within ourselves. Firstly we must establish what is important to making us happy and healthy (our values) and then take courageous steps to get us there.
In society we have been taught that we need to do more, achieve more, be more and follow straight lines. But what actually makes us happy is being creators, imagining the life we want, the life we always dreamed of. To create that life, we need to create the space and invest the time to start building the foundations for it.
When we are children we are free to a certain extent to explore, make mistakes, express our emotions and feelings and be curious. What happens as we grow and become more conditions to the norms and expectations of society we lose this playful attitude and end up settling into what is expected of us.
How do we recharge our lives with this playful, curious nature and also have a sense of purpose? This is where reconnecting and discovering your connection to the natural world comes into play. When we go back to our root and be in the heart, we can create an amazing world. The more in rhythm we are with our true self to more aligned we become with our purpose, the more content we feel, the more empowered we become and as we dance along our journey, we will meet exactly who we need to and transform, let go and regenerate our lives to a new level.
All of the obstacles that prevent us from achieving our life goals are actually rooted within our mindset, or (the lens in which we view our life). Once we have established our values and our actions are aligned, we can open up the vast and infinite creative potential within us and shift our mindset from scarcity to abundance.
If you want to live a regenerative life, that is balanced, holistic and aligned with your own vision and values then you can take the first step and start creating abundance, health and value in your life and beyond.
