Wild nature lessons
Starting in March 2025
join us, learning by doing!
During this spring to autumn get and working-together series you’ll learn the basics of wild and vegetable gardening and discover how an ecosystem functions.
- Together with Anke Riesenkamp and friends you will sow, plant, harvest, and taste.
- You’ll gain practical knowledge in cultivation and gardening, while also developing a deeper connection with nature and yourself.
- While we are on it we will explore some inspiring perspectives by thinkers, artists, and scientists on the relationship between humans and nature (a.o. Rupert Sheldrake, Bruno Latour, Robin Wall Kimmerer, James Lovelock)
What you nurture, nurtures you in return. This insight will help you experience a deeper sense of interconnectedness between yourself and the natural world.
