After almost three years away, this podcast is back with a new setting.

Join us for open-hearted, honest conversations recorded live from our land in Sicily, where the sounds of nature become part of each episode. The wind through the trees, the birds, the insects everything you hear is exactly as it was in that moment, with no filters and no cut.

In this first episode, Patrick and Junis sit beneath one of the oldest carob trees on their land to reflect on the journey that brought them here. We talk about leaving city life behind, buying and protecting land, choosing Sicily, building community, and what it really means to "live the dream."

This podcast is our space to share the reality behind the reels, an unfiltered conversations about creating a slower, more intentional life.

In the episodes to come, we'll explore topics like transitioning from corporate life to the land, raising a child in this lifestyle, living more consciously with resources, building community, and the joys and challenges of turning a dream into reality.

If you're dreaming of a different way of living, we hope these conversations inspire you. Thanks for listening, and let us know what this episode brought up for you.

This episode brings us back in front of the microphones to make a reflection on 2023. Patrick shares what he has learnt from the garden, what he would do differently next seasons and also what content creation means, ignites and induces. 

Bonus: A short teaser into the next year and some (big) changes ahead.

This week's topic is called GROWING FOOD: THE REVOLUTION WE NEED? - and makes us question on where the essential knownledge of growing, preparing and preserving food got lost and why we did not learn more about this in school. Who is gaining benefits from us "not knowing" and why growing your own food can feel like an act of empowerment. 

This week's topic is called: REFLECTING ON WATER - and has us dive deep into our relationship with water. What water means in our garden as well as our life as a whole, how we can be more conscious about its usage in times in which clean and safe water becomes more precious.

This week's topic is called: GARDENING MAY CHANGE YOUR LIFE  - and tells Patrick's personal story and the beginning of becoming TheFrenchieGardener.
