Introduction

All around the city of Cluj-Napoca ( located in the heart of Transilvania), just like in many other romanian locations, lies plenty of agricultural fields, many of them abandoned, were wild bushes grow and wild-life starts to thrive. Last month, we received a piece of that land, about 1,5 hectars, in which we plan to try a different aproach from traditional agriculture: a permaculture project.
We chose this name because after the place was abandoned by previous farmers, the land is slowly colonized by blackthorn, a plant we find very useful for our permaculture purposes. For start, we work to create natural fences that offers protection to other plants seeds and to small animals.







For now, we've seen some herds of deers, a few pheasants, rabbits, but we're sure there will be many other surprises :)
