‘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.
Community is at the heart of all human settlements, and people are at the heart of all community. ‘People Care’ is the foundation of prosperity, abundance and health within society.
Here at ‘The Walnut Project’ we are doing just that.
The Walnut Project is not a place, it is an ‘IDEA’ a vision, a beautiful offering to every community in the UK.
Imagine communities all over the UK where all individuals are given the space to contribute through passion and purpose. There are natural settings where wildlife and humans can share the space and there is no competition, only collaboration. there is no scarcity, only abundance.
Nature is only abundance. It is only when humans are out of the flow of natural rhythms that scarcity becomes a reality.
What is possible if ‘IDEAS’ like ‘The Walnut Project’ are created around the UK? Places where people can go to ground, connect, regenerate their souls, bodies and minds, be with others who wish to heal and rejuvenate?
Communities would reconnect, regenerate, localise, there would be crafts people, artists, food growers, musicians, teachers of all types all learning from each other. People would feel safe, the earth would be sacred and the future would be bright.
‘The Walnut Project’ is a collaboration of
Myself, Danny (Ordanics) George and Giuliano.
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 2026, 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 Mindset Coaching’
What is the ‘Holistic Mindset’?
The ‘Holistic Mindset’ is focused on creation, imagining what can be, diversifying to expand instead of contract, flowing with natural rhythms, grounded in the present, solutions orientated, grateful to every moment and cultivating the faith that enables anyone to find and develop solutions to the problems. All of the solutions are within.
To nurture the ‘Holistic Mindset’ we look to nature. Nature is perfect in her creation. Nature has developed a framework of simplistic patterns and cycles which allow complexity, diversity and detail to play out. AT the heart of this is the infinite potential of possibilities. What inhibits us, is our lack of imagination.
Children by their very nature are creators. Their imagination is their best tool, it can take them to faraway lands with magic, twists and turns where anything is possible. By using this principle and applying focus and discipline along with repetition we can start creating anything we desire.
When we become creative, there is no problem that cannot be solved. Quite often the problem is there because of how we see it. When we change perspective, new solutions come into view.
The ‘Holistic Mindset’ relates to ‘Self Care’ it allows one to find that connection within themselves. Observing ones own behaviour and understanding which ways of thinking, feeling and acting are beneficial to one and which are not, enables one to disassociate the essential selves from the conditioned self. Nothing in nature is linear, everything is cyclical. From the seasons to habitual cycles. Once one views life through these cycles, it means that new cycles, habits and behaviours can be created..
What kind of life do you really desire? Are you living that life now?
To create the life you truly desire may mean a drastic transformation- moving home, changing career or finding a new community. It may mean giving up something you think makes you feel safe in exchange for what makes you feel free. You can start creating your vision right where you are now.
Through this inner transformation, you can find your purpose and this can become your contribution to your community.
The health and happiness of human beings is in direct relation to the environment that one lives in. When one has beautiful natural surroundings one instantly feels better, life force is supported by this relationship to nature. When in artificial surroundings emotional, mental and physical wellbeing is 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.
Reconnecting back to nature, will open up new opportunities and connections. Partnering with nature will support you in many ways. Synergising with the natural rhythms will bring new balance and energy into your life. This can be done in many ways and will gradually lead you towards a healthier, happier and more abundant life.
The first step is to seek within what we seek without and transform our vision into reality.
Many of the obstacles and barriers that can be experience as adults are a result of us being out of natural balance. Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health, as well as social interactions are deeply interconnected. Ultimately all of these obstacles experienced which prevent success, abundance, peace and comfort are rooted within personal connection to others and to natural cycles of life and are actually rooted within mindset, or (the lens in which we view our life).
How can I help?
I provide a Holistic Coaching service which is grounded in the approach to finding the solutions within yourself.
In society we have been taught that we need to do more, achieve more, know more and follow the crowd. Isn’t it exhausting?
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 roots and rest in the heart, a new reality is created. The more in rhythm we are with our true self the 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, to transform, let go and regenerate our lives to a new level.
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.
