Over the weekend, 5 volunteers worked to position the final beds of our spiral and added the doors to the greenhouse.

The greenhouse continued to show us a hard time but we did manage to build all the walls and roof. We’ve just got the doors and windows to get up now

At Théra, we just spent 6 days in building workshops with volunteers to put up our greenhouse. It was quite hard core as we discovered just how hard our ground is, mostly limestone and clay.

Our water tanks quickly filled up with the first rain. We didn’t even have a chance to put in the overflows! Working on that now….

Starting the new year off with a bang…. We set up all four of our water retainer tanks yesterday and today. Our permaculture community garden will be watered as needed come springtime!

This month, we enjoyed sowing garlic cloves and also got ready for rain water retention.

We managed to build 6 out of the 9 raised beds so far and about half of the stone herb garden. Unfortunately, we will have to redo part of it to start off with larger stones…. 🤪

We have been building a permaculture garden at our bioregional learning center, Théra. The center aims to be a showcase for regenerative ways of living and provide learning opportunities and support for the bioregion inhabitants. Here is a pic of the bit of land we chose for the garden before we started.
