Terre Infinie is our way of expressing our deep reverence for the Earth and her power to generate miracles.
We hope Terre Infinie becomes a contagious movement — an invitation to reconnect with our bodies and their infinite ability to create life, within us, around us, and in the world.
Terre Infinie was born from a profound desire to initiate a model of agriculture that is local, participatory, sustainable, and reproducible.
In October 2024, we began exploring and applying the principles of Natural Farming.
From the start, we felt that this was much more than an agricultural practice:
it was a gentle revolution, both inner and outer, where every gesture is infused with joy, love, simplicity, and grace.
After almost a year…
We have lived through experiences of great richness — moments of joy, doubt, and at times, disorientation in the vast field of the living.
The Earth has taught us her wisdom — her way of welcoming, transforming, inviting us to release our conditioning and trust life.
Autumn returned, and with it came the question:
Should we plant trees? How many, and which ones?
This reflection naturally led us to visit our teacher, Kutluhan, at his farm Shizen in Italy, at the end of October 2025.
And so Joost, Corinne, and Veerle set off in a camper van for this journey.
A valley, seven mountains, and a meeting
Shizen Farm rests in a valley surrounded by seven mountains — a place both barren and nourishing, a guardian of its own purity.
Arriving there felt like coming home to ourselves: a deep reconnection with the living world.
We reunited with Kutluhan, met Manuela and the whole community, and immersed ourselves in a life paced by the breath of the Earth.
Kutluhan’s transmissions were numerous and precious.
Working the land, sharing meals and silence, we integrated — through the body — the multidimensional nature of Natural Farming:
not only a way of growing food, but a way of being in the world, in unity with all life.
The Third Paradise
On our way back, one last stop awaited us: Assisi, in the footsteps of Saint Francis.
There, near the basilica, we discovered Michelangelo Pistoletto’s work The Third Paradise —
three circles formed by 121 olive trees planted in double rows, a free interpretation of the mathematical symbol for infinity.
The artist offers his own explanation:
the first paradise is the archaic one, where humanity lived in full fusion with nature;
the second is its opposite, the artificial paradise created through advanced technology and human intelligence;
the third is envisioned as a sign for the future: a renewed balance between nature and artifice — a reconciliation between nature, humanity, and spirituality.
Walking slowly among the olive trees, the work felt like a timeless experience, a remembering.
The Third Paradise is near, ready to be uncovered.
And in that moment, we understood:
Natural Farming is a gateway to the Third Paradise.
To live in this way is to allow that paradise to emerge through us —
a way of inhabiting the Earth where every being, every form of life, is welcomed and included.
A radically different model of agriculture
Let us return to the definition of Natural Farming:
What is Natural Farming?
Natural Farming means collaborating with nature rather than trying to control it.
Inspired by the philosophy of Masanobu Fukuoka, it rests on a few simple yet powerful principles:
- No chemical fertilizers or pesticides
• No tilling of the soil
• Respect and support for biodiversity
• Minimal human intervention
What we discovered is that this approach creates something very special.
It teaches us to take only what we need, and leave the rest to the Earth and her inhabitants.
It teaches us unconditional love.
It invites us to trust natural abundance — the Earth’s own capacity to choose what she grows, transforms, or lets rest.
It reminds us of our place as human beings in service to Mother Earth and the greater Whole.
Through the Earth, and through our bodies — inseparable from her —
we can reconnect to the intelligence of Source,
and finally experience unity.

An easy way to connect with the cosmic principle of the life pulse is silence. Bringing our attention to the stillness, the purple in our image, in the middle in the bottom area. This is the arriving out of the muchness of our current life circumstances, with all that happens to us and around us.
The purple arrow shows how you move from the stillness into contraction (green on our image). It is an inward movement where you transform the outer potential offered through the exploitation into inner potential through nourishment, consolidation and integration. The wave continues and invites us to let go, which feels like a letting go of inner potential in order to achieve outer potential. We let go to create space.
