We need your help to continue our regenerative future!
We are a Grassroots eco-social activist collective working on a “human scale”, investing our Hearts & Souls and self financing most of our projects and initiatives. We focus on people to people, farmer to farmer knowledge, experience exchanges and practical action.
Everyone can contribute to create the changes we all want to see in this world!
Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.

Together, let's create the changes we all want to see in this world
Together we can plant a Forest!
Every single tree is of great importance to our ecosystems health as well as in our food production landscapes. By giving as little as €10 you can sponsor the planting of a tree.
Suggested donation: €10
Educating the farmers of the future
We are passionate about education and capacity building and have many years of experience in training farmers and interested participants alike in various countries around the world. The Introductory Regenerative Agroforestry Training is a minimum of 3-5 days.
Suggested donation: €150-250
The Introductory Regenerative Agroforestry Training is a minimum of 3-5 days and we have Demonstration & Education Sites in Spain, Sri Lanka and the Philippines where we can conduct such training. The cost for a 3 day Farmers Training per Farmer is :
- 250 Euro at Can Lliure Demonstration & Education Site in Spain
- 150 Dollar at Kiaruwa Eco- Sanctuary Demonstration & Education site in Philippines
- 150 Dollar at The Woods Demonstration & Education Site in Sri Lanka
With your support we can train more local farmers and speed up the transition towards a Regenerative Food System!
Building the training centers
We believe the easiest way to inspire farmers into action is via Demonstration & Education. Therefore we aim to establish several Regenerative Agroforestry Demonstration & Education sites on all 5 Continents in all climatic zones. Help us to make this vision possible by 2030!
Suggested investment: €10,000-50,000
The cost of starting and implementing a Regenerative Agroforestry Demonstration and Education Site varies depending on local context and climate.
Estimated cost 10.000 – 50.000 euro for 1-3ha site.

Regenerative Ecological Economics
Regenerative Ecological Economics don’t necessarily mean zero growth or de-growth rather what we would be interested in is QUALITATIVE growth not QUANTITATIVE growth in terms of GDP focus only and stopping of the increasing eco-systemic, disconnected consumption and production.
We have to reflect on what kinds of growth we are aiming for, what’s the purposes of further growth, who would benefit from it, what would it cost in terms of money and embodied energy, how long would it last and if it could be sustained by the bio-physical limits and the laws of thermodynamics of planet earth.
Quantitative vs Qualitative Growth
What we need to become aware of is how living mature Systems shift from an early stage of QUANTITATIVE growth to a later more mature stage of QUALITATIVE growth. No-growth is not the answer either as growth is a central characteristic of all living systems and organisms, however growth in nature is mostly NON-LINEAR and LIMITED by the local ecosystems resources and capacity to support growth, decline , releasing and recycling.
S-Shaped (Sigmoid) Curve
Source: Khan Academy
Life’s growth pattern in most cases follows a S-SHAPED CURVE (Sigmoid Curve) from rapid growth in the pioneer phase of succession to slower growth at its mature stage of succession. Whereas our current economic system focuses on the LINEAR view and the EXPONENTIAL GROWTH CURVE of economic development de-coupling itself from its resource base in which it is nested within which results in a highly unsustainable human-created system. In the natural system of a cancer cell for example, it has an exponential growth curve and ultimately ends up killing its host which it seems at this moment our current civilization is on a similar path…..
“When human beings lose their connection to nature, to heaven and earth, then they do not know how to nurture their environment or how to rule their world — which is saying the same thing. Human beings destroy their ecology at the same time that they destroy one another. From that perspective, healing our society goes hand in hand with healing our personal, elemental connection with the phenomenal world.”
