While I was there, I started to observe how other people were flowing in their lives, living and working from a place of doing what they loved. This had a real sense of freedom and authenticity to me. It ignited the fuse of change. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1603898535712-MJL52IROBUI3VAKSABCQ/IMG_2536.jpg My story After that month I decided to really let go and follow my heart, my truth, and what brought meaning. I designed a plan for “soft launching” myself into a fresh life (wasn’t quite ready to jump off the cliff without some kind of parachute!). I saved everything I earned for 2 years, then sold or gave away almost everything I owned and set out to travel with the intention of finding my other passions. Leaving the career and lifestyle I’d hung onto for so long and letting go of the financial “security” that came with it—combined with the feeling that I had no transferable skills!!—was scary but liberating. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1607191789260-YUD430ID12R8N0RD7SQV/IMG_1614.jpg My story - First I discovered Ayurveda, which helped me understand who I was at my core, and how to best align my life with my true nature. And then I found Permaculture, which just completely blew me away and opened my eyes to a more positive way of living in the world, in harmony with nature and especially with community and endless collaborations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1603899725261-L5ZRVRGM65E8IUWK4SSB/IMG_5495.jpg My story https://www.justinrobertshaw.com/bio daily 0.75 2025-09-27 https://www.justinrobertshaw.com/permaculture-consultations daily 0.75 2022-06-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1607196790460-GN9B2AYJOPO1VNS478UO/IMG_8646.jpg Permaculture Design Consultations - For businesses Permaculture Design Consultation Interested in integrating Permaculture into your business or property, but not sure exactly where to start?

This composting system provides fertile growing area around the edge and needs little maintenance https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1606311984578-N7G3QE3BPMPZEN53H5CT/IMG_5483.JPG Permaculture Projects - Spectrum Retreat Centre, Turkey The second was a chicken composting system for kitchen waste, which increased quality of eggs and reduced the need to buy chicken feed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1606311983448-VTMJRFYI896DU0JGQ0LB/IMG_5316.JPG Permaculture Projects - Spectrum Retreat Centre, Turkey We introduced a worm farm for kitchen scraps, located directly in the growing beds to enhance fertility of the soil... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604583303369-MG6PJW4X48BAP6C19ZSI/IMG_5476.JPG Permaculture Projects - Spectrum Retreat Centre, Turkey ...As well as worm tunnels, also located directly in the kitchen herb garden https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604583308236-SH0I9377GCTHGVXC7VQ5/IMG_5487.JPG Permaculture Projects - Spectrum Retreat Centre, Turkey We prepared mulch to increase the fertility and bio mass of an existing barren ground to help develop a new growing area https://www.justinrobertshaw.com/permaculture-projects/yogapulia-yoga-retreat-center-permaculture-design-consultation monthly 0.5 2020-11-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524141119-SA7N5UX2RWLWG6QMAT15/WhatsApp+Image+2020-11-01+at+14.00.34.jpeg Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy Initial consultation with Mark & Nicola to explore the project and define what they were looking for, what they'd already done, and what their vision for the retreat centre over the next few years is. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524607510-L8EWEVHDQGHQRE2R2X0D/5397a6c9-ccfe-48ae-93d7-0c6fabddb865.JPG Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy We walked the land to explore and observe what we already had and where new sustainable systems could be implemented and why. Here we also discovered what natural resources we also had at our disposal. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524348959-VIS8U3SI6YDWIQ7ILYD6/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_1183.jpg Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy Once we'd defined their needs and requirements, we started getting some systems setup. We started small by building a new compost system—not only did Mark want to join in the fun, but some of the guests did, too! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524469090-WJSPJKQCEL6VXLFH49RE/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_1185.jpg Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy The first compost system we setup was a long-term compost system. We sized it based on the amount of food waste generated during retreats, and ensured it had room to grow in the future, if required. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524396636-4VXS5NPSK3IZ6JOCOAGB/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_1184.jpg Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy Everyone helped!! Here Marvin, Mark and I are fixing chicken wire to the inside of the compartments of the compost areas to allow air to pass through while holding the biomass in place. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524231030-XWPGRKL1PZVT337ZNON2/Compost+area1.JPG Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy We built the new compost area close to a water source and next to the organic garden. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524449701-FVQVJ7FD5X8O20E9LQVG/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_1102.jpg Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy I showed Mark & Nicola how to layer the compost, using what they have from the land - in this case a lot of dried leaves - as the carbon for the compost system https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524358888-DL7RAB2E41UHJZFGZZZE/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_10a2.jpg Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy To help make new organic garden beds, first we measured and defined the contours of the land (using our homemade "A" frame!) to dig swales—a very useful technique for building trenches capture and slow down water on sloped land. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524726418-RHH24Q8KN8IMSVO6QL3K/IMG_1334.JPG Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy Then we dug the swales and laid out the new garden beds. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604524216627-MVWEM2V1FTN8VGGP032J/IMG_1417.JPG Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy Something I love about permaculture: Multifunctional, interlinked systems. The new garden beds will receive water from the existing water tank + a gravity-fed drip irrigation system, and they'll receive nutrient-dense soil from the composting beds close by. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604526055751-WF8Q6U881R29DYI52L1O/4e072ea9-2cc5-41e5-a95c-83542a77d41e.jpg Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy The second new composting system we made was worm farms, using old plastic buckets. Worm farms are great for composting food waste during months when no retreats are running. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c877e51e66669446f7aa938/1604526073508-E8U5TXFBQQHIRRO1EKYP/IMG_1474.JPG Permaculture Projects - Yogapulia Retreat Centre, Italy To help YogApulia harness more energy, I recommended increasing the existing solar-harvesting systems and introducing water harvesting - using the roof of the yoga shala to capture rain water that is then fed into water storage to supply water to organic garden.
