Syntropic solutions
for your success!
Professional, context-specific and process-based,
with you all along the way!!
I've been living in Syntropy since 2016, when I did my first Syntropic course in Brazil at Sitio Semente. Since then, I've done a dozen courses with all the leading practitioners in Brazil. I've brought syntropic practices to Australia (the first courses were given in March/April 2017 near Byron Bay, NSW). I've co-founded the first syntropic farm in Australia (Gaballah Farm), I've taught hundreds of students across the globe and I've created my own 2.5 acres agroforest in highly degraded land.
How can I help YOU?
I work with humans at an individual and personal level. For me to be able to help you, I must understand your context as much as possible (sometimes better than you might do). If your agroforestry system is to work for you, then I need to "become you"!!!
The level of engagement is entirely up to you to decide. It could be a simple one-hour zoom meeting or a long-term project where I will professionally help you from the start to the end and ensure that your goals are met.
Mentorship
This is my most personalised educational service, one that ensures that you and/or your community are individually supported for as long as needed.
Through custom-made coaching sessions, I will facilitate a process in which you will gain knowledge and experience of all aspects regarding Syntropic Agroforestry.
From climatic considerations and specific planting techniques, through to philosophical and conceptual considerations, all the way to the observational skills and mindset required to conduct your own agroforestry systems.
My aim is to help you become an autonomous practitioner as efficiently as possible, so you are free to explore where it can take you!!
Our engagement suitability, style and time-frame will be developed upon initial conversation (free of charge), where we will explore the potentials and practicalities of working together.

Design
One of the most challenging parts of the agroforestry process is how to design a plausible and resilient system. One that is likely to achieve the goals of the land manager without breaking the bank.
I have done hundreds of designs for myself, friends, colleagues and clients.
I have developed a process-based framework that ensures that "all boxes are ticked" and that, if appropriately managed, those designs will deliver a cost-beneficial outcome.
From subsistence multi-cropping and fruiting systems to commercial enterprises, I will deliver a design that works for YOU!!
Project Engagement
In many circumstances, there is the need for an experienced practitioner to help decision makers to navigate the complexities surrounding agroforestry systems.
In a strategic, process-based way, I am able to engage meaningfully with all decision makers (from the top to the ground) and communicate my findings professionally and timely.
I can help with all facets of project development, delivery, implementation and management.
Key project development areas are:
Context research, development and communication;
System(s) design;
Implementation plan;
Management strategy;
Economic modeling;
Monitoring; and
Report writing.
I try my best to keep my professional services at a high level and affordable, as my goal is to see the world covered in productive forestry systems and inhabited by conscious human beings.
I have different fees depending on the project, ranging from US$50 per hour for individuals and communities, US$40 per hour for nonprofits and charities and US$75 per hour for commercial projects.
Obviously, for large (medium/long term) projects, fees will be decided upon our meaningful and trust-based engagement.
