Located in Sicily on the North-West of Etna La Contessa dell'Etna it's a Permacultural project applied to Mediterranean climate where plants, animals and men lives in symbiosis, respecting time, space and mostly nature.
Why the Countess?
The name comes from the beauty of the colors and shapes of clouds formations that the Etna wears on days of cold and strong wind, this name emphasizes the feeling and respect we have towards the volcano, which hosts us, excites us with spectacular eruptions that colors the sky day and night and also reminds us how infinitely small we are compare to mother nature.
