Learn Syntropic Agroforestry at home and grow the food that Money Can't Buy.
Do you want to grow the best food AND help Mother Earth?
I can help!!
Through the Syntropic Agroforestry Masterclass,
I will guide you through a process of
discovery and skill building.
Where you will create a Food-Forest that:
Fits your life,
suits your land,
loves your climate!
You will grow not only food, but life. And,
you will love doing it!!
A process that, over time, increases both the quantity and quality of life.
Perpetually creating conditions for higher life forms to exist and prosper.
Evolve.
Thus, our aim is not to produce, but to perpetually increase life!
Production happens when life increases and prospers...
It's a natural and rhythmical process!
When we learn those natural movements and rhythms,
We are able to produce food that is:
Nutritional, regenerative and full of life forces!
Hello, I am Victor Pires
I've been Living in Syntropy since 2016, when I did my first Syntropic course at Sitio Semente in Brazil.
Since then, I've brought Syntropic Agroforestry to Australia and co-founded the first Syntropic Farm there - Gabbalah Farm.
For more than 20 years I've dedicated my life to not only learning how nature operates, but also researching and experiencing what it takes to walk alongside it in a a regeneratively and productive pathway.
Its success is intrinsically dependant on the people involved, how they understand and relate to the natural world and how they participate (or not), in its evolutionary process.
Our ability (time, skill resources, etc) must determine the complexity and scale of our agroforestry system.
Through a comprehensive and individualised approach, you will not only understand the natural forces on your land, but you will also become confident to make decisions and make your food-forest a reality!
The Syntropic Agroforestry Masterclass is for humans that want to actively engage meaningfully with nature and themselves.
The Masterclass is for those that want to know and not just believe!

Hello, I am Victor Pires
I've been Living in Syntropy since 2015, when I did my first Syntropic course at Sitio Semente in Brazil.
Since then, I've brought Syntropic Farming to Australia and co-founded the first Syntropic Farm there - Gabalah Farm.
For more than 20 years I've dedicated my life to not only learning how nature operates, but also researching and experiencing what it takes to walk alongside it in a a regeneratively and productive pathway.
Beyond practices, theories and philosophies, I've learnt that Syntropic Agroforestry is 95% human-dependant.
Its success is intrinsically dependant on the people involved, how they understand and relate to the natural world and how they participate (or not), in its evolutionary process.

The Syntropic Agroforestry
Masterclass
The Syntropic Agroforestry Masterclass is an individualised journey into the forces and processes of the Natural World
and the practices of regenerative farming.
Through in-depth presentations, practical activities and demonstrations and ongoing support.
it empowers humans everywhere in the world to produce food regeneratively with minimal external inputs.
Regardless of your climate!
