The Mothership: Soča Valley

Nestled in one of Slovenia’s most scenic valleys, the Mothership is our flagship location, embodying the essence of permaculture and sustainable living. Here, we are planting forests, nurturing biodiversity, and creating a space where nature and people coexist harmoniously. Whether you’re joining us for a workshop, helping with gardening, planting, or simply enjoying the tranquil wilderness, the Mothership offers a range of outdoor pursuits, including kayaking, paragliding, and more.Paragliding over the valley offers a bird’s eye view of this stunning landscape, connecting you with the earth in a unique and exhilarating way.

Govec Food Forest: Wilderness on the Karst Plateau

On the rugged limestone landscape of the Karst Plateau, the Govec Food Forest is a testament to resilience and innovation in permaculture. After a devastating wildfire, we are rebuilding and restoring the land, creating a diverse food forest that will thrive for generations. With techniques like Hügelkultur and lasagna-style raised beds, we’re transforming this challenging environment into a sustainable haven. The Govec site also invites you to take part in the adventure of paragliding, offering a thrilling perspective of our progress.

Our Mission

We are committed to creating self-sufficient communities that thrive in harmony with nature. At both the Soča Valley and Karst Plateau sites, our work is guided by sustainability and environmental stewardship principles. Whether you’re with us for a day or a lifetime, we invite you to be part of this exciting journey.

Looking to the Future

Our journey is just beginning. With each plant we nurture, the workshop we hold, and the new friends we welcome, we’re laying the foundation for a greener future. Stay tuned for updates on our progress, upcoming events, and ways you can get involved.

Exciting developments coming soon!
