Description

The project consists of revitalizing agricultural land through the creation of an edible forest with the participation of citizens, to encourage a sustainable management of the forest, and an effective and environmentally friendly food production. We seek to turn the forest into a place for citizens to spend their leisure time with environmental and educational activities; also a promotion of the natural and cultural heritage through an inclusion program for the formation of groups at risk.

Edible Forest

The project aims, in one hand, to provide the community with an edible forest promoting local and ecological production, as well as to empower citizens in self-cultivation and responsible consumption; while it also aims to promote the social inclusion of people at risk, providing an agro-ecological training and possible future employment, as well as promoting the consumption of harvest products for personal consumption, improving their eating habits.

Activities

• Planning, design, and implementation of the edible forest project.
• Training in sustainable forestry practices, permaculture principles, and techniques for establishing and maintaining an edible forest ecosystem.
• Working closely with individuals facing the risk of social exclusion, providing them with skills and knowledge to become active participants in the project.
