Portrait of the founder of One Belvedere Tuscany, Natacha Fazal Karim

Hello, I am Natacha Fazal Karim.

A serial entrepreneur, philanthropist, advocate for gender equality, and passionate environmentalist.

The 2020 pandemic marked a pivotal turning point in my life: a time to pause, observe, reflect, and reconnect with myself. This transformative period led me to explore holistic treatments, mindfulness, and a deeper connection with the environment.

In December 2021, we acquired One Belvedere, a farm and winery where we adopted regenerative and permaculture farming practices—widely regarded as the most sustainable methods of agriculture. As well as embracing the principles of permaculture philosophy. Alongside this, we undertook a complete renovation of the estate’s buildings, an immensely rewarding and educational process.

In 2023, I founded Beloved to share knowledge, spark ideas, and advocate for eco-conscious living. Whether it’s reducing waste, following seasonal recipes, choosing sustainable materials, switching to renewable energy, or supporting ethical local businesses.

 I believe in the power of small, deliberate actions to create meaningful change. One step at a time, one day at a time. One blog post at a time.

Enjoy the reading!
