UNIVERSITY IN FARMHOUSE GOSSBERG

In the last years with the help of several workcamps there was created a new conference room. It is set up in a sustainable manner, which means that are only used ecological materials. Now there is a courtyard ready to be designed as a perfect room for (outdoor) recreation and studies. Therefore we will work with wood, earth, rocks to create a little stage and some paths. We will build a landscape in Japanese stile, with additional hut for serving tee ceremony. We can use plants, stones and sculptures. As every year we are invited to get to know the local Perma Culture garden and do some gardening there. While you look after the plants, there this the possibility to harvest fruits. Of course there is also the opportunity to get to know about the idea of a Permaculture with its, plants, animals and environment.Therefore we are looking for 12 motivated young people who are interested in handicrafts, advanced training and gardening/landscaping.Study part: How to create a productive garden which grows plants and feeds animals in a way that only a minimum input of energy and resources are required to achieve maximum sustainability to the environment?
