Sunseed Desert Technology

Years of wind and rain have weathered away the cover of our beautiful Domo tent where we hold meetings, workshops and sharing circles. After more than ten years we have finally decided a change is needed!

This approach to agriculture fosters a dynamic, regenerative and healthy ecosystem that restores degraded soil biodiversity. By planting trees, shrubs, and crops together with mulch, horse manure and humanure we mimic the forest’s natural ecosystem. After purchasing new trees we have planted them in our gardens giving them a new home to grow in. The symbiotic interactions between plants and our human management (chopping, pruning and dropping) will regenerate our soils.

From 12 – 17 August we attended the 2025 European Ecovillage Gathering, which was hosted by Mindenegyüttmegy Association (MEGY), a thriving ecovillage that happens to be one of the largest permaculture projects in Hungary. This year was a special year in the history of the ecovillage movement, as it marked the 30 year anniversary of the Global Ecovillage Network (GEN), and the first year that the annual gathering was happening in eastern Europe.
