Nature-Culture, a holistic community development concept, seeks to develop a way of life that promotes positive transformation into a sustainable lifestyle for its participants. A Nature-Culture project creates and expresses an ideology that synthesizes an integration of spiritual, intellectual and natural earth concepts. By combining multiple holistic activities, disciplines and environment, brain function is enhanced, the body cells are renewed and people are propelled to greater awareness of “self”. As we align the body, mind and soul with nature, we create what we call a “nature culture”. We learn new habits by doing new things, acting new ways, eating new foods and communicating new thoughts.

Nature Culture is a holistic form of community development. It builds and strengthens the capacity and skills of individuals and organizations to effectively participate in acquiring and managing natural resources that directly support their community. The creation of Nature-Culture communities is our vision for fostering environments where cohesive coalitions of spiritually inclined, holistic practitioners can create sustainable lifestyles for themselves and their families.

What is Nature Culture?

“Better environment, better food, better brains, better people…build better communities”.
