About this opportunity

The space

Nestled in the forests of Mugello, in the Tuscan Apennines just an hour from Florence, Tertulia is an international coliving community and a regenerative agricultural farm dedicated to exploring new relationships between people, nature and rural life. Our home is a beautifully restored 18th-century farmhouse surrounded by chestnut forests, olive groves, vegetable gardens, meadows and wild landscapes. Here, we explore ways of living and working that reconnect people with nature, with each other and with the local community. Founded in 2005 as a project to regenerate an abandoned rural settlement, Tertulia has gradually evolved into a living laboratory for sustainability, permaculture and community life. Today, we welcome people from around the world who share our curiosity about alternative ways of living, creating and contributing to a more sustainable future. Life here follows the rhythms of the seasons. You might spend your morning working on an artistic project, your afternoon exploring the forest, and your evening sharing dinner and conversations with fellow residents. We offer comfortable accommodation, shared living spaces, coworking facilities, a communal kitchen and access to the surrounding natural environment.

Surroundings

Located in the forests of Mugello, Tuscany, Tertulia is surrounded by extensive woodland, including wild areas, chestnut forests, olive groves, meadows and agricultural spaces. There are opportunities to participate in farming activities, learn about permaculture, practise yoga, discover the surrounding countryside and connect with the local community of Mugello. Reached primarily by car from nearby Vicchio (10 minutes), which is a natural place for colivers to go for a coffee. Borgo San Lorenzo offers local farmers market as well as traditional Tuscan vibes with trattorias and small shops and restaurants. Trains from Firenze go to Borgo and Vicchio at a daily schedule.

Life during a stay

Tertulia is more than a place to stay. It is a living experiment in regenerative agriculture, sustainability and community life. During your residency, you will become part of our international coliving community of sharing thoughts, ideas and activities while maintaining the freedom to pursue your individual projects. You will also share everyday experiences with people from different countries and backgrounds, participate in communal dinners and have opportunities to explore farming activities, local traditions and the surrounding Tuscan countryside. We warmly encourage residents to share their creative process with the community, whether through informal conversations, an open studio session, a workshop or a presentation of the completed work.

What the artist will do

In Tertulia you can find the tranquillity to focus on you individual practice as well as the inspiration that comes from sharing everyday life with an international community. As a funded artist, you are invited to take part in an exciting new creative initiative: extending our regenerative farm with an Art Forestry Park, where artistic expression becomes an integral part of the natural environment. Our vision is to create an inspiring outdoor art space where nature and artistic expression come together through sculptures, installations, and walking paths, where visitors can pause, observe, reflect and experience the landscape in new ways. The surroundings offer countless possibilities for artistic exploration: ancient chestnut trees, changing seasons, abandoned agricultural materials and tools, old wood, farmland, traditional Tuscan landscapes and the everyday rhythms of rural life. Imagine walking through an ancient chestnut forest and unexpectedly encountering a work of art: A sculpture made from reclaimed agricultural tools. An installation inviting visitors to pause and reconnect with their surroundings. A creative intervention that tells a story about the landscape, its history or the relationship between human activity and nature. We welcome all artists whom are interested in works that combine artistic quality with environmental awareness, creativity with sustainability, and individual expression with a meaningful connection to the place.
