Gm Solarpunks! Would you consider to join a project that gives you access to a network of Solarpunk Safe Places located in Climate Change resilient areas?
A new day, a new harvest 🙏🏻
Everyday is harvest day 💚 #solarpunkhub #microclimatefarm
Finally meeting @leen_schelfhout and @xdamman in person was a real joy! Come back soon 🙂
Today we visited the Solarpunk Hub in Tradate. What an inspiring project by @Marcobear_eth and his father @Earthbasedsoul. A starlink connected solar powered permaculture garden. So much abundance!
Spend some time sitting and observing nature around you, from a window, toes in the grass, pictures shared by others, seeing its value can motivate us to protect it and rebuild a stronger future for all life.
Tiny scale, big impact 🌱🌱🌱🌱
Life is good 🥔🥔
Our main potato bed is almost ready for harvest. What should we plant next? #solarpunkhub #microclimatefarm
Solarpunk is a rebellion against the dark and dystopian narratives of the future. It offers a hopeful alternative, where communities come together to build a world powered by clean energy and collective action.
The commons hub is officially open! After years of building, setbacks, and lots of collective effort, our event space & guesthouse is finally officially live. We've built an experimental playground for regenerative systems design, but our journey has only just begun. 🧵👇
Micro: tiny scale, big impact. Climate: built for resilience and carbon drawdown. Farm: cultivating food, soil, and community — supporting both people and biodiversity. This is a Micro Climate Farm. #microclimatefarm #Solarpunk
I am discovering a new world 🦇 Bat Tower near Linthwaite Looking like an infant mill chimney which hopes to grow larger, this six-metre structure was erected in 2009. It can house up to 200 bats. It is believed to be the first of its kind in the UK and includes a tunnel which…
Tonight we had a very good storm, and the girls were late going back to their hiding places.
In a solarpunk future, respect will flow through all living beings. Their one life will be sacred, just like ours. 🌱🐾 #Solarpunk #Compassion
Nature is abundant, and so are we 🌱 Find the misfit… #solarpunknomads #solarpunkhub #microclimatefarm
We believe there’s a huge unexpressed potential in involving people from all walks of life in stewarding small pieces of land. A solarpunk future grows from the grassroots up. ✊🏻💚🌍
🧵 Micro Climate Farms — An Idea for Resilience 1/10 What if part of the future of farming was small, regenerative and designed for both people and wildlife? We’re exploring a bold new idea: Micro Climate Farms. A tool for resilience in a rapidly changing world.
Today was exam day for Dobby. After careful observation, she passed and, for the thirteenth year, she’ll continue as my official mushroom-hunting assistant!
Life is short, enjoy your journey on this beautiful living planet 💚 #foraging 🍄🟫 #alps
In the last months we have been working on a new idea, micro regenerative farms that using Solarpunk ingenuity, provide climate resilience for both humans and biodiversity.
What if small farms could become powerful climate solutions? Introducing the idea of Micro Climate Farms: micro-scale, regenerative systems for long-term climate resilience, supporting both humans and biodiversity, integrating DIY tech, open-source tools, and ecological design.
Potatoes out, late-summer zucchini in 🌱🌱 The potatoes did their job, now the soil is richer and looser. I’ll still add some homemade compost to boost its fertility. #solarpunkhub #microclimatefarm
Growing peanuts in Lombardy, who would’ve thought? 🥲
How can we adapt to a changing climate? We’re experimenting with tropical, heat-resilient crops like sweet potatoes, okra, and peanuts. Will they thrive here? Will they help us build food resilience? We’re learning, one season at a time. #ClimateAdaptation #MicroClimateFarms
How could we deal with the rise of Popillia japonica? Should we design agroforestry beds under the fruit trees, even with this invasion underway? Would installing artificial hoopoe nests help us invite this natural predator to join the ecosystem? #wildlifebasedsolutions #MCF
We’re exploring new ways to collaborate with wild animals. Like encouraging wild boars to turn our compost and disturb soil in productive ways, or increasing bird populations as natural pest control. MCFs shift from control to coexistence 💚
Tonight, our kind wild boar friends gave our cold compost pile another good stir. They get the earthworms—we get free heavy labor. #TogetherWeCan #WildlifeBasedSolutions #MCF
Our hugelkultur polyculture beds are exploding with life! Tomatoes, eggplants, pumpkins, basil, mix of cabbages, tromboncino. Beautiful and abundant 💚 #solarpunkhub #microclimatefarm
