Harvest Time!

Harvest Time!


August is harvest month! We look what we can harvest in the garden and collect in nature. We then process this colorful mix in a variety of ways.


Just like in the past, we dive into the world of foragers and discover what nature has to offer. Vegetables, herbs, fruits, berries, flowers, seeds and maybe even mushrooms are on the collection list. We will only take what we need to make herbal tea, healing ointment, ingredients for muesli, plant dyes and much more.
We are looking forward to discovering, creating, crafting and much more together!


The permaculture garden for children is located at the permaculture farm Auenhof bei Feldbach, a learning and demonstration farm affiliated with the Academy for Permaculture Design "Down to Earth".


This program is supported by the permaculture farm Auenhof bei Feldbach as well as WWF.

This is a 6-day bilingual (German/English) permaculture course with overnight accommodation.
