Plek onder de Bomen

We are Peter Rohmer (1961) and Valérie van Reede (1970). Plek onder de Bomen was created in 2012 from the desire to live more sustainably and self-sufficiently. Here we live in our self-built house and work in the stables that have been converted into a training and coaching space.

We both work as senior coach, trainer, and therapist and have years of experience in the business world. We use methodologies such as systemic work, enneagram, (team) coaching, meditation, breath work, and leadership development.

In November 2021, we started the establishment of a food forest. With the food forest, we want to contribute to facilitating the biodiversity that is under enormous pressure worldwide. The food forest is also a place that shows how diversity enriches nature and provides a fertile ground for diverse fauna and flora. A beautiful metaphor from which we humans can learn a lot.

Important keywords for us are:

• Sustainability: for the construction, we used trees from our own land and second-hand materials.
• Ecological: besides sustainable materials, our catering is always fresh, organic, and vegetarian.
• Fertile ground: the food forest on our land is a metaphor for the fertile ground within ourselves and contributes to biodiversity.
• Presence: the more we are truly present with ourselves, the greater the impact we have on our surroundings. This is central to our training and team coaching.

We feel privileged to have this beautiful place and are happy to share it with others.
