Voedselbos

In November 2021, we started the creation of a food forest. With the establishment of the food forest, we primarily want to contribute to facilitating the biodiversity that is under immense pressure worldwide. 

The food forest is also a place that shows how diversity enriches nature and provides fertile ground for various fauna and flora. Given this, we see the food forest as a beautiful metaphor from which we humans can learn a lot. The food forest is a place where people from diverse backgrounds can come together to meet each other and actively contribute to maintaining the food forest. We regularly organize days where volunteers dedicate themselves to the maintenance of the food forest. For example, people who are slowly finding their place in society again after a burnout or for other personal reasons.

We also apply the principles of the food forest in our work as facilitators for professionals, teams, and organizations. A fertile ground needs to be watered and fertilized. And sometimes it's also necessary to weed out to give other plants space or to put up a fence to protect a valuable tree. The foundation is that when a soil is fertile enough, growth, development, and harvest happen naturally.

A portion of our earnings as trainers and coaches goes to the food forest.
