Upcoming Events
Workshops on Syntropic Farming
TERRA Network offers workshops at a diverse range of syntropic farms across Europe, from the arid south to the temperate north. Each farm offers a chance to explore how syntropic farming responds to different climates, landscapes and growing conditions.
Our Foundational Workshops welcome everyone, whether you’re discovering syntropic farming for the first time or building on years of experience. They bring together farmers, landowners, community groups, researchers and curious individuals to develop a thorough understanding of the principles, with practical learning to help you start a project or develop your skills in regenerative ways of growing.
More than an introduction, these workshops are the beginning of TERRA’s structured professional development pathway. They build on what you already know and establish the shared foundation required for further work with our network, including consulting and advanced training. Wherever you’re starting from, they offer a first step towards becoming a skilled, confident practitioner—and a connection to a community you can keep learning with.
