2. Reconnecting with the past
urbaniZation has separated city dwellers
from food Production and manufacturing
processes.
movements such as urban farming and fab
Labs are bringing the production
process back into cities but few urbanites
have learnt and practiced the basic skills
to grow food and produce essential goods.
This event will allow
today's 20-somethings to learn the skills
most 20-somethings mastered two
centuries ago.
5. Learning by doing
DOing is the best method to learning
The retreat will be organized around
workshops where participants can learn
to build tools, milk animals, weave materials, chop wood and much more...
Expect to get dirty.
7. Where ?
The Retreat will take place At the
Chateau de Caillac, a 16th century castle in
the Cantal region of France.
The estate covers 300 hectares and
includes a watermill, a farm and over 400
trees.
