Natural Farming
Natural Farming is based on four major principles.
1.        No cultivation – no plowing
2.        No fertilizers
3.        No weeding
4.        No pesticides

This is the beginning of a site on natural farming – the idea is to
provide information on natural farming and to report on our
activities here in Greece.
The site will be updated as my time allows. If you have any comments
or if you have something to contribute please let me know.
Thank You

PHOTOS
The Photos below are from the natural farm of Panos Manikis, in Northern 
Greece, near the city of Edessa.
The farm has been operational for the last 18 years or so, and is about 
30,000 square meters - it contains
more than 100 different types of trees and more than 100 different types of 
plants on the ground - it is
operated on the above stated principles of natural farming. The end result is 
that soil fertility increases
year by year, and disease free trees, fruits and vegetables are produced.  
The operational costs are
reduced since there is no plowing, fertilizers or chemical pesticides.

Seeding Projects
Over the last 15 years, numerous large and small scale seeding projects have 
taken place in Greece in an attempt
to reverse the land degradation and desertification that is creeping into the 
country. Numerous photographs are
enclosed.
