Our Journey Towards a Harmonious Future
La Chiave Verde is more than a place—it’s a living vision for a resilient and harmonious way of life. In the Crocchio Valley, where history and possibility intertwine, we are breathing new life into historic homes with green materials, cultivating organic crops, and embracing renewable energy to create a thriving, self-sufficient community.
Rooted in Love, Trust, and Wisdom, and inspired by Joy, Peace, and Light, we work hand in hand with local residents and artisans, honoring traditions and sharing knowledge as we build together. By weaving sustainability, wellness, and cultural richness into daily life, we are planting the seeds of a regenerative future that belongs to everyone—now and for generations to come.

Paw-sitive Dog Shelter Initiative
(in memory of Bob Stewart, a true dog lover)
At La Chiave Verde, caring for nature means caring for every living being.
Our Paw-sitive Dog Shelter initiative rescues and rehabilitates stray and abandoned dogs in the Crocchio Valley, offering medical care, gentle training, and loving homes.
Some dogs receive specialized training to detect illnesses such as diabetes, Parkinson’s or epilepsy, turning rescue into lifesaving service. Others find forever families or enjoy a safe retreat while their owners travel. Partnering with veterinary schools and local groups, the project strengthens animal welfare, builds local skills and sustainable tourism with innovative research.
Our Valued Partners
Our Founding Story
La Chiave Verde began as a bold response to a changing world-and from the very start, working side by side with the people of the Crocchio Valley has been essential to our vision.The pandemic and other global uncertainties revealed how vital it is to live with intention - close to nature, connected to one another, and true to our values. Together with local residents, we chose to design a new way forward: a community where sustainability and well-being are daily practice.
Our purpose is clear-to live well while treading lightly. With local craftspeople and farmers, we are restoring historic homes with green materials, cultivating organic crops, and harnessing renewable energy to create a self-sufficient foundation . This collaboration ensures that growth strengthens the region and that traditions are honored and passed on.
Guided by Love, Trust, and Wisdom, and inspired by Joy, Peace, and Light, La Chiave Verde is more than a destination - it is a living partnership for harmony, creativity, and renewal. Set between sea and mountains in one of Europe's cleanest and most culturally rich regions, we are building a regenerative future together with the community that calls this valley home.
