I magine 1.7 acres of land in front of your house - that would be a huge garden, wouldn't it? Well, this is our garden. We call it simply "our experimental garden".

For the last few years we have tried to create a nice garden out of this piece of land. We are aware of immeasurable possibilities to be creative in every possible way. So far we have divided our garden into four different parts. Firstly, there is our kitchen garden where we grow plenty of our vegetables. Then there's a hanging garden with all kinds of different fruit trees. And the last two parts are not divided along clear lines. There you can find all kinds of totally different plants growing harmoniously together. So, on one side you could see a beautiful rose in full blossom and just next to her there would be a huge bamboo towering high above all other plants. We call this part of our garden - the wild garden. In our experimenting with gardening we try to implement many ideas springing from Bill Mollison's permaculture and at the same time combine them with Masanobu Fukuoka's The Road Back to Nature.
The whole project gives us also a great opportunity to practice awareness - it's a kind of meditation in everyday life. Let me conclude this site with some words of Fukuoka...
