About Wild Ivy - Integral Practice House
Wild Ivy House is a regenerative home, retreat and residency initiative located in the Sierra María–Los Vélez Natural Park, Andalusia. Established in 2020 by an international group of Integral Zen practitioners, it was later entrusted to Joanna Bojczewska to steward and develop.
Since 2020, Wild Ivy House has hosted annual 2–3 month integral practice residencies, retreats, and learning gatherings. The homes and gardens have been developed using biophilic and permaculture-inspired principles supporting nature connection and low-impact living.
Working with local neighbours and regional networks, Joanna co-initiated the Agroecology School Los Vélez (supported by Communities for Climate) and coordinated local ECHO Soils citizen science soil programme. As these foundations are maturing, Wild Ivy House is growing towards contribution to the stewardship and regeneration of shared ecological landscape.
