Strawberries, Sightseeing and Sawdust (#80)
Stories from the cascina
View ChannelAbout
We're Isis and Bertus, a Belgian-Dutch couple who are exchanging the concrete of the suburbs for the peace of nature. After fifteen years of dreaming and gradually working towards making this possible, we stand at the beginning of a new chapter. Our path has led us to a dilapidated farmstead nestled in the rolling hills of the breathtaking Langhe area in Piemonte, Italy. We invite you to join us on our journey of intentionally and lovingly restoring this beautiful 200-year old farmstead. We can't wait to breathe new life into this house and its surrounding land and to learn from the challenges ahead of us.

Video Description
This week, Bertus’ parents came to visit — so between chipping away at old plaster, shaping the table saw bench, and mowing the vegetable garden paths, we also made time for shared meals, day trips, and the season’s first strawberries. There’s a bit of everything in this episode: family moments, renovation progress, and quiet spring chores around the cascina. Thanks for being here. We're Isis & Bertus, a belgian-dutch couple. In the summer of 2023 we moved into a neglected farmhouse in a tiny village in the northwest of Italy. The last inhabitants left some 15 years ago, but large parts of the property have been empty for well over 20 years. Thank you for joining us on our adventure!
