We believe our relation to nature lies at the core of the transition to a healthy world. Therefore, we envision and embody a nature-connected life.
The School of Nature is a regenerative farm and school located in the north-east of Spain. We facilitate connecting with, learning from and living together with nature. We have an holistic approach, meaning we include both inner and outer nature, as well as both wild and cultivated nature. The farm is focussed on soil enrichment by means of a holistic system of trees, plants and animals, who meanwhile offer food. The school offers experiences of a nature-connected living that are focussed on creating meaningful interactions with nature in both practical and spiritual ways.
We are Bastiaan and Jorien. We found each other in both love and vision of life. We started the School of Nature in 2017 from our apartment in Amsterdam. We’ve now settled in our own natural paradise in Spain and are re-launching the School of Nature from here. We both studied in the economy/business/finance sector. Jorien soon found her way working alongside social entrepreneurs and meanwhile unfolded her intuition for working with our inner nature. Bastiaan found his passion for ecology through travels around the world and now holds extensive knowledge and experience in regenerative farming, wild foraging, permaculture and agroforestry/food-forests.
