ART, COMMUNITY & GARDENING WORKSHOP

​

Amongst many community building practices I find one of the most holistic way to explore the themes of community and love within a garden.
Creating and maintaining a garden asks for active and loving hands to prepare the soil, to seed, plant, water, observe, protect, care and harvest. This beautiful microcosmos represents in many ways life itself and the way we connect with it and eachother.
Nature invites us to cooperate, to be embedded in the cycle of her seasons and to feel our ability to grow our own food.

Food souvereignity is a very inmportant subject when it comes to empower local communities. Furthermore we learn about the cooperation of all beings.

We will connect with the essence of water, sun, earth and air – elements every healthy community needs to be norished, keep warm, grow and breathe.

​

To creativly implement our experience in the garden, every session in the garden will be accompanied by a topic related art session such as carving wood, painting with natural colors or weaving dream catchers.
