TERRA

TERRA (Transition and Education for a Resilient and Regenerative Agriculture) is the first CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) in Luxembourg, bringing producers and consumers together in the creation of resilient local food systems that work with, rather than against, nature.It is about creating flourishing regenerative landscapes, both social and ecological. The permaculture ethics of Care for the land, Care for the people and Fair Share guide our every process as we create resilient, closed loop systems that satisfy our need for wholesome, fresh, organic and locally-produced food. TERRA is actively creating a new social ecology around the production and distribution of quality food. Ranging from workshops to seminars, festivities and a whole range of other events, TERRA offers a truly participatory centre for action-based learning and sharing. We believe learning experiences are best assimilated when they are based on action. TERRA is a participatory centre for research and learning. We offer the space and tools to learn together, share our knowledge, skills and passions. By working together, everything is more joyful, we get more work done in shorter time and learn a lot in the process! TERRA offers a wide variety of events focused on participatory learning. From certified workshops and seminars, to hand-on working days in the field and festive events celebrating the gifts of each season, and is creating a new social cohesion around food production.
