Join us for a 5-day seminar on Schloss Tempelhof Farm in Germany!
After successfully finishing the RegAGri4Europe Online Course, 30 learners from Belgium, Greece and Germany will have the opportunity to experience first-hand how Regenerative Agriculture concepts can bear fruit on a thriving and operating farm.
For the last 10 years, the Schloss Tempelhof farm has converted to organic farming and been experimenting with regenerative practices -working with mulch, compost, green manures, Agroforestry, compost tee and shallow cultivation. All these practices have led to anever-healthier soil food web and a notable increase in organic matter.
During practical sessions, participants will see how these practices can be put into action and where the important leverage points are. During theory blocks, students can deepen their understanding of the online course contents and receive new inputs. Furthermore, participants will work on actual case studies, learning how to convert conventionally cultivated land into regenerative fields and how to sustain them in the long-term.
After this seminar, participants will have a deeper understanding as well as practical tools and techniques for enhancing soil fertility, biodiversity, improving water cycles, increasing resilience to climate change and enhancing carbon sequestration. Participants will become better skilled to choose innovative paths and sustainable cultivation methods in their (future) professional lives.
