ECO VILLAGE NAMUR, BELGIUM / FULLY FUNDED

Our project consists of an organic farm since 1984, with vegetable cultivation, bakery and nowadays also a small sheep herd.

It is an old farm, with around 12.5 hectares of meadows, fields, orchards, streams, ponds and forests.

It has become a small "eco-village" with nearly 40 inhabitants from 1 to 67 years old, who work in these activities (permaculture, herding sheep, baking bread, etc.) and also beyond. We're also open - if the covid goes away! - for internships and training in personal development, or other fine projects.

A year ago we started a new permaculture design in different locations on the farm, with a more collective life and collaboration. With these extra trees we want to make windbreaks around our crops, and also produce some firewood. We strive for good food and energy autonomy for this collective, and if possible various surpluses that can be used or sold by others.

With the support of Tree Plan 272 trees were planted.

ABOUT TREEPLAN.ORG

Did you know: Trees are amazing organisms. Every tree captures carbon dioxide and generates oxygen for other people, plants, and animals on earth. Depending on the size and type of tree, a single mature tree can produce enough oxygen for up to 18 people!

​

Did you know: humanity destroys 18 million acres of forest every year. That’s billions of trees that are being wiped out year-after-year for building materials, paper manufacture, or to make room for cattle grazing or infrastructure development. At Treeplan.org, we want to turn that around. It’s our goal to be part of the solution, ensuring that healthy forests and abundant clean air are available for the coming generations.

​

Treeplan.org informs and motivates action. We spotlight meaningful reforestation projects from around the world and connect our visitors to initiatives that plant the right trees, in the right places, for lasting impact. Working with trusted partners such as Plant-for-the-Planet, in support of the United Nations Environment Programme, we help turn awareness into concrete action—so everyone can contribute to restoring forests and securing a livable future.
