A Sustainable Terrace project from Amsterdam city centre. Using Permaculture Hugelbed technique in plant boxes in a designed way. I call them HUGELBOX. It saves water because it harvests rainwater. In the long term, it creates a self sustainable planter box. When you go away for holidays, you don't need to worry about your plants for irrigation. As the wood within the boxes decay in time, you'll have a long-term deposit for soil fertility. Cool, eh?
The same self-sustaining technique can be used for schools, people's balconies, office spaces, and so on. No more hydro correls.

Housing co-operative De Bundel aims to offer Amsterdammers living in affordable and stable housing, and to make them part of a community. A community that is strongly rooted in the environment in which it finds itself.

Towards Nature has been selected by the community to design their Community Garden. We have already done the preliminary design workshops and I have presented the first round of design ideas and sketches to the community.

To support this community, you can find the info on https://www.debundel.co/

More to come, Happy, healthy 2025 everyone !

It is like another planet system, a galaxy even. Shiny, interesting, full of colours, attractive, hypnotising. Diversity brings life to gardens.

Theory drawing of a Food Forest Structure & Photos of a School Food Forest. Have anyone heard of a Food Forest inside a school garden before? Yes, I can proudly introduce it to you. It exists in Amersfoort, the Netherlands, designed & implemented by Towards Nature. This summer we are planning to extend it further, with moving the student's bikes in another location. Can you imagine the quality of learning for the students, connection with nature, awareness, stress release and so on...? In connection with the Food Forest, a pizza owen & an open kitchen has been planned in the garden. Do you see the awareness level of this school management? Do you also notice the school gardens totally paved, stone covered? Yes, that is the difference between looking and seeing! Thanks for following, thanks for seeing and letting others notice, thanks for talking about it. You are important. You are the ambassadors of awareness!

Yearly willow pruning day at Laterna Magica school. The willow trees by the canal so if you fall, canal is waiting for you:o)
Luckily it was a sunny day without wind, so high up there, I did do bird dance.
Pruned branches will be used for making hedges in the school garden. It is amazing to experience the school garden's progress. Fruit and nut trees growing. New children every year volunteer for the garden works. Such pleasure to talk to them. I must say I'm proud being part of designing and creating this school garden.

I was privileged to work together with Shu Liang from Day of Adaptation, non-profit organization, and our 2023 intern Adele Tessier from France and Cicero all the way from Brazil. More photos and info will follow.

Mission LIFE India is an exciting initiative. I love the comment from Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi.
But there is still one major problem. How are we going to get to Environmental Conscious Lifestyle? With investing more and more and only in technology(greenhouses and solar panel fields madness) or investing in sustaining people locally and their environment equally with using sustainable technologies? There is a huge difference in these two approaches. The first one supports Consumerism and monetary values, and the second one supports the system change and value changes. Big question in front of every country and their leaders. India seems ahead of many looking at the statement from India's leader.
