    Description

    It is an eco project on an one hectare land in Greece close to Volos. We are creating a permaculture garden in the shape of the flower of life and an eco-minded community. On the land is a well. A river is closeby. The beach is just in 10 minutes walking distance. We want to grow a community of likeminded people.
