Planting Syntrofia - A permaculture project in Crete

Evolving Cycles

Chania, Crete, Grécia

Descrição

Community Lab is one of Evolving Cycles non profit organization ecotopias that designs and implements social permaculture projects. Its intention is to establish hubs of regeneration in different places around Crete and south of Greece in order to fight the climate and social crisis. Through the establishment of permaculture projects, we offer alternatives of entrepreneurship, lifestyle and collaboration inspired by degrowth theory, transition movement and rural rehabilitation. Mission: Rediscover what it means to be indigenous to the land that we inhabit. Vision: A permaculture educational center for dry-climate Mediterranean landscapes The focus now is to kick-start the regeneration of the land and to multiply its productivity through the establishment of annual permaculture gardens and food forest. Syntrofia's social role Garipa village is still under formation, so we will be welcoming 2 new community members, not just volunteers. Read InfoPack: https://tinyurl.com/4sm3zr6e
