OUR PROJECTS
Overview of our Permaculture projects, workshops & more
For an introduction into Permaculture, visit our dedicated page, linked here.
As our website (and farm) grows, more details and background information will be added to these sections. Some may be complemented through our Blog stories, our workshops and other activities.
EARTH:
Make healthy soil
Creating a healthy soil is a vital component of our project. A soil rich in nutrients and microorganisms improves the health of plants and their yield, and also supports a biodiverse ecosystem. This project is ongoing at INSPIRA. Join us in making healthy soil through a special Permaculture humus that includes biochar! Whether for a day or during a visit to INSPIRA, just contact us for details.
PRODUCE:
Mandala Fruit and Vegetable Garden
Plant, grow or harvest in a circular, colorful, and highly efficient mandala garden, inspired by ancient traditions and permaculture design. Help us plant and maintain this rich vegetable, fruit & herb garden. This project is on-going! A second Mandala garden will be built in the near future (early 2026), in case you are interested in participating, just contact us!
FARM ANIMALS:
Build and convert Chicken coops
Help us create a permanent chicken coop, with a chicken playground and plenty of outdoor spaces. Or for a day or two, be part of a team converting a camping Roulotte into a mobile chicken coop for our terrain roaming Wyandotte chickens. Join us in Spring and Summer 2025.
FARM ANIMALS:
Naturalistic bee hive
Trying to stay as close to nature as possible and using respectful naturalistic methods (example on www.freethebees.ch), we need your help to build a bee haven near our flower meadows late Spring or early Summer 2025.
NATURE ART:
Install art structures with natural materials
Join the fun of creating inspiring and playful art installations in the woods and other parts of the farm using mainly with natural materials. Starting this Summer 2025, come create your own piece or art, or fairy corner, or just help us in creating one. Contact us for coordination.
