Greenbodega
A permaculture farm in the municipality of La Orotava, in the north of Tenerife, run by an Austrian family together with their horses. The project describes itself as holistic permaculture: the underlying idea is to reproduce the cycles of nature so that farming works in harmony with its surroundings. Alongside the agricultural side they offer workshops and work with horses, and the animals are part of the whole approach.
Greenbodega presents itself as a holistic permaculture farm in Tenerife, run by an Austrian family. As they explain it, permaculture tries to replicate the cycles of nature so that farming can operate in harmony with the environment, and they describe it as the highest form of sustainable agriculture because it demands thought beforehand.
The farm combines that agricultural side with a programme of workshops focused on intuition and perception, and with activities involving the horses. The farm notes that its animals are not only part of the permaculture but part of the thinking behind the project. To find out what is currently on offer, it is best to write to them.
