What if we lived in line with nature, and with each other?
A living experiment
In line with nature is a non-profit association, started by Evi and Matthias. In a valley in southern Spain the association owns 52 hectares of land, most of it mountain. On the 4,5 irrigated hectares we grow food with natural farming, plant a food forest and restore the old buildings, so that one day young people can come here to find out what they want to contribute to the world.
NATURAL FARMING
Growing food on dry land, without ploughing or chemicals
We work with the ideas of Masanobu Fukuoka: don't turn the soil, don't use chemicals, and let plants and soil life do most of the work. On depleted, dry land in Spain that takes patience. First the soil has to come back, then the food.
Everything we try here, what works and what doesn't, goes into our videos and online courses.


RIGHT NOW
We are renovating the main house
We are giving our all every day to renovate the main house which will be the heart of our organization. Here, new projects and the management of the project will come to life. And... we will be able to welcome our first guests. It will host a seed bank, atelier for growing and creativity and a room for guests. Help us to finish this first leap!

What grows around this place
As the land develops,
so do our relationships around it.

Why we do this
We believe that people and connections are more imortant than money.
Life is about care and reconnecting with nature, food and each other.
