Day 1 for "In Rural We Trust" begins the training week for village facilitators coming from Spain, Italy, France, Ireland, Poland, Turkey, and Greece in the splendid setting of San Marco D'Alunzio. We have started weaving relationships within the group, forming a team.
The training week is part of the "In Rural We Trust" Erasmus+ project, which aims to empower rural communities and promote sustainable development through cultural exchange and grassroots initiatives. Participants from different countries are learning tools and methods for community engagement, with a focus on inclusion, collaboration, and empowerment.
Over the course of the week, the facilitators will strengthen their skills in group facilitation, project management, and cross-cultural communication. Training sessions are combined with experiences in the field, visiting local associations, businesses, and locals.
By the end of the training, the newly formed international team will be ready to support rural communities across Europe in starting their own bottom-up projects. The goal is to foster vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable development from the ground up.

🏡 Introducing Casa Migliaca: Where Past and Present Converge 🏞️
Casa Migliaca is more than just a stone building with the charm of centuries past. It's where history meets contemporary living, exuding the dignity of its time-honored heritage. This remarkable estate has been proudly owned by the Allegra family, maintaining its legacy without changes in ownership or property deeds. While the exact date of construction remains uncertain, it is believed to predate the 17th century, with the intriguing inscription "MDCLI" (1651) on the well-preserved stone olive press, hinting at its early use as a rural structure—a testament to the rich history it carries.
Stepping inside, you'll witness the remarkable machines like the olive press and the underground reservoirs that have stood the test of time. Even the original terracotta "giare" once used to store olive oil, now repurposed as flower pots, can be found scattered throughout the garden, embracing the beauty of continuity.
🎨 Future Art Residency Program 🖌️
At Casa Migliaca, we're excited to embark on a new chapter, where art meets heritage. Our vision includes launching an Art Residency Program, welcoming artists from diverse backgrounds and disciplines to find inspiration within these ancient walls. We believe the interplay between contemporary artistic expression and our timeless surroundings will create a unique synergy, breathing new life into Casa Migliaca's storied history.
🏕️ Offsites and Retreats 🌳
Casa Migliaca will serve as a haven for offsites and retreats, catering to digital nomads, remote workers, and teams seeking a space that fosters creativity and innovation. Surrounded by nature's tranquility and the whispers of the past, participants will be rejuvenated, ready to tackle new challenges and achieve unprecedented growth.
As we embark on this journey, we invite you to join us at Casa Migliaca a place where the past whispers to the present and every stone converges with drea
