The ultimate goal of farming is the cultivation of human beings.
About Eco-Buddies
The coldness of technology and media rage has broken the love to bond with Mother Earth. The pages of the web have dulled the senses to the beauty of the sunrise, the warm feeling of moist soil on our fingers, the call of so many beautiful birds experienced only and truly whilst physically immersed in nature.
Yes, we see nature on our screens, and perhaps the choice of theme is Nature for my cell, but the experience of nature is lost as solidly as a skyscraper replacing the green meadows odd yesteryear.
We need to reconnect, relive and find true feelings for the green world that surrounds.
Our projects are simple garden projects to stimulate kids minds to the beauty of Earth. To appreciate the force’s at play, the strength of the elements of sun wind season and the power of growth.
