About the project

Welcome to our Urban Oasis!

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The Farm is an open urban infrastructure. The site combines new technologies and ancestral traditions. It is a place of exchanges where we cultivate fruits, vegetables and fish locally, all year long, in the city! It is a natural and relaxing place in which we feel welcomed and respected. It is a place for getting new ideas, learning and sharing.

💼 What the programme involves

Volunteers will insulate the main building using an ecological approach: soil-lime-straw. Volunteers will also take part to the gardenning activities.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accomodation will be in the locker room of the football stadium, just near the farm.

📍 About the location

The project is based on the ethical need to go back to nature and use ancestral techniques that have proved to be useful and respect the Earth. It is worth knowing that sometimes, used methods can be questioned because they can nnot be applied accoriding to the situation . We want to keep moving forward, constantly improve our methods and adapt. Our purpose is to create an evolutionary infrastructure.-The internal space will be dedicated to aquaponics and to its management. - The outside space will be used for the creation of permaculture gardens. In the site, you will find a natural vegetable orchard, as well as an insect hotel, hives and bees which favor the expansion of biodiversity. The numerous trees, bushes and perennial plants on the farm keep the biodiversity in the plantations all year long. This enables to set a real sustainable ecosystem.
