The Story to live together
The town of Drena is famous for its “Marone di Drena DOP” (chestnut) but in reality there is much more: woods of chestnut trees where you can rediscover a balance with nature and an ancient lifestyle, which some have already wanted to find by moving here from the city. Carmen has been commissioned to spread this unique experience of wellbeing by training real Ambassadors.
If you are passionate about unspoilt nature, a healthy, ecological and humane life, do not miss the opportunity to participate in Carmen’s masterclass to become Ambassador of Drena. See you on the churchyard!
