Not depending on state systems, the area

is completely self-sufficient and uses three

principles of soil cultivation: permaculture,
natural farming, and the biointensive

method. Rainwater is collected and

reused. Different types of plant beds are
now spreading on the previously infertile

land, from mounded, tall, 365-day beds,

pallet beds, and herbal spiral beds. The

common feature of these approaches is
that they make it easier to use the leftover

plants to grow new ones and to grow food

without chemicals. The products can be
seen and some can be bought.
