Let nature thrive on your community land
Day One: July 14 2026
We are going to dive into the impact of an ecovillage on their natural surroundings and far beyond the borders of their piece of paradise. I’ll share insights of what I have seen while discovering different ecovillages. I walk you through the struggles linked to nature restoration. By sharing this I want to challenge you and help you to have a positive impact on your land.
This workshop is not about permaculture or syntropic farming/food forests. It’s about ecosystems and their dynamics, diversity of species, genetics, human impacts, slowing down and really observing what you have in front of you so that the we all, from the tiniest microbe to the biggest tree, can thrive.

Building Trust with Water Retention Landscapes
Day Four: July 17 2026
In this workshop we explore how Water Retention Landscapes can become a foundation for ecological abundance and resilience. Based on the work at Tamera, we examine the broken water cycle at the root of many ecological and social crises caused by human impact. We look at how disrupted watersheds lead to floods, droughts and land degradation, and why restoring them is a key act of regeneration in times of climate instability.
We introduce core principles of Water Retention Landscapes and how entire catchments can be restored to resilience. By slowing, spreading and sinking water, landscapes begin to buffer climate extremes and reweave local water cycles, soils and ecosystems.
“I leave this volunteering experience knowing… that we can regenerate not only lands and resources but also human relationships through open and honest communication.”
