Permakulturpark am Lebensgarten Steyerberg (PaLS) gGmbH

Beskrivning
In the beautifully situated permacultural park at Steyerberg, Germany, the participants will learn in a practical way about the future of ecological farming. By a combination of theory lessons and practical work in the market garden they will experience what it needs to produce very healthy organic vegetables and to help to restore depleted soils at the same time. They will work together with skilled permacultural gardeners and motivated long-term volunteers from different countries. There will be a lot of leisure activities and fun. Participants will have the opportunity to meet the residents of the ‘Lebensgarten’, one of the first ecovillages in Germany, and share their experiences of living in a community.
