Podere Insieme
Tuscany, Tuscany, Italy
What Makes Our Community Unique
Podere Insieme stands out because it connects a very specific way of living with a practical housing format. The community is not just themed around farmhouse restoration and shared lunch; its common spaces, daily rhythms, and membership path are designed so that farmhouse restoration and shared lunch becomes part of ordinary life rather than a decorative amenity.
About This Community
Podere Insieme centers on an older farmhouse and outbuildings being adapted into private homes, shared kitchen space, guest rooms, outdoor dining, gardens, and workshop areas. Some rooms are restored, some are still rough, and many of the best conversations happen over bread and fruit after long work sessions. Because the project is actively being built, the current texture includes visible work, active decisions, and a chance to watch the community culture form alongside the physical place. Founder Marta Bellini brings a practical, human-scale approach to the project and is focused on keeping the place useful, welcoming, and specific rather than polished for its own sake. The goal is not to promise a perfect lifestyle. It is to create a residential setting where ordinary daily life becomes easier, more social, and more intentional. People can keep private lives, work, host family, and make practical decisions while having a real neighborhood around them. What matters most is repeated contact: meals, shared tools, walks, work sessions, quiet mornings, and the informal help that turns adjacent households into a community.
