A summer camp for teenagers from the wider permaculture community across Europe.
We will gather around campfires, cook good food together, build projects with recycled materials, learn woodworking, blacksmithing and welding, split wood, forage wild food and herbs, and explore practical skills for resilient living.
The camp is not only about what we do, but also about how we do it. Together we will create a conscious group culture based on cooperation, responsibility and initiative. Teenagers will practice leadership, teamwork, project planning and caring for shared spaces.
A week of friendship, creativity, practical learning and summer adventure in nature.
Come learn, experience and connect!

Together we can discover how permaculture can be a solution to many (world) problems.
What is permaculture? What are the ethics and how do you live with them? How do you use permaculture principles as decision making tools?
For us, permaculture is a very inspiring way to design our land and life in a sustainable way. Growing almost all of our food, staying healthy with home grown herbal remedies (teas, oils, tinctures) and natural building techniques is part of that.
We love to use permaculture principles to design and develop our land and our lives. We take care of the earth, of the people around us and we love to share our knowledge, skills and good food from the garden.
