🌱 From Monoculture to Abundance 🌱
Learn how to revive degraded land and transform monocultures into thriving, biodiverse ecosystems. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll blend syntropic, mycotropic and regenerative soil techniques in a permaculture context to bring life back to a struggling avocado orchard. Mornings focus on theory, afternoons on practice, and a special tour of the FreeField Experimental Farm will showcase 200+ edible plant species in action.

✨ Regenerate the land. Create abundance. Grow resilience.
🌱 Syntropic Transition Workshop 🌱
Syntropic farming is a powerful approach to creating productive, regenerative agroforestry systems. Traditionally, it begins with a “clean slate” — an empty field, carefully planted in succession.
But the reality for most farmers is very different. Fields are often monocultures, abandoned, or degraded. The challenge is: how do we bring life back in this kind of contexts?
In this workshop, we will explore exactly that. Together, we’ll demonstrate how to transition a monoculture — in this case, a 2-hectare degraded avocado orchard where more than half the trees were dead or diseased — into a thriving, biodiverse syntropic system. By combining syntropic design, permaculture principles, mycotropic practices, and regenerative soil techniques, we will turn depleted land into a living ecosystem.
✨ What you’ll experience:
Morning sessions – Theory of regenerative soil microbiology, syntropic planning, and plant biodiversity.
Afternoon sessions – Hands-on practice: plant propagation & planting, soil inoculation with fungal life, and biomass management using on-site resources.
Special visit – Guided tour of the FreeField Experimental Farm, home to 200+ edible plant species in diverse arrangements (syntropic lines, permaculture consortia, water management, mycotropic techniques, and more).
🌿 Additional Info
The workshop is offered on a free, conscious contribution basis.
Expect to get your hands dirty during the afternoon sessions — bring gloves, farm clothes, and boots.
Participants arrange their own lodging, food, and transportation. Lunches will be potluck-style, shared among all participants.
Places are limited — book early to secure your spot!
