We'll send you a beautiful postcard with a personalised message and our undying love.
You'll have your own tree or shrub named after you in the new agroforestry garden that we've created in Diego III. We'll send you a picture and personalised message to thank you :)
Also, whenever you come to Sunseed in the future, you'll be able to visit your tree and know that it was thanks to your contribution that we could continue our work on Diego III, turning it into the productive and biodiverse syntropic agroforestry system that we know it can become!
This thoroughly-researched and beautifully illustrated e-book teaches you how to make your own natural first aid kit, as well as providing detailed information about how to identify, grow, harvest, dry and use 37 medicinal plants. All of these plants grow - or have been grown - in Sunseed's medicinal garden, but many of them are commonly found across Europe and other continents (for example mint, basil, rosemary, St John's wort, comfrey, nettle etc).
The e-book will be sent to you in PDF format (easily accessible on most devices).
For any ex-Sunseeders or past visitors of Sunseed who would love to recreate some of the amazing vegetarian food they ate here, from the homemade sourdough bread to the many different spreads and houmous varieties, as well as creative ways to use leftovers and seasonal vegetables.
This PDF e-book will include our current personal favourites, as well as recipes that have been passed down from previous generations of Sunseeders. Other useful tips like how to make homemade vinegar from citrus peels will also be in there!
Come to Sunseed and enjoy a 1.5 hour private yoga lesson with Rosa, one of our Sunseed core team who also happens to be a yoga teacher! The lesson will take place either in our dome, a cosy private space surrounded by nature, or outside depending on the weather. Feel free to bring one or two others along with you (maximum group size is 3 people).
Optional: for an additional €20, you can follow your yoga lesson with a 1-hour yoga nidra meditation offering by Billie (another of our qualified yoga teachers!) and afterwards share a nutritious vegetarian meal with us at Sunseed before going home.
Spend the morning on a 2-hour foraging walk led by Silvia, learning how to identify edible wild plants in the nature surrounding Sunseed. Then bring your foraging harvest to a cooking workshop led by Silvia and Billie, learn the best vegetarian recipes using wild herbs, and eat your delicious foraged lunch together with the Sunseed community.
After lunch, join a guided tour of the Sunseed project, and learn all about our permaculture gardens and our off-grid systems.
Finally, end the day with a fungi workshop led by Ines, learning about the different fungi-related projects and experiments we are doing at Sunseed!
We will send you a box of products that we make ourselves: tinctures, natural toothpaste, deodorant, skin cream and ointment, as well as some of our food preserves, such as our jams and marmalades. We will also put in 5 Sunseed postcards.
We can post this box of goodies to anywhere within Spain.
Enjoy a two-night stay in a private room at Sunseed, with all your (organic and vegetarian) meals cooked for you. We would offer you a guided tour of our project and also a guided hike of the surrounding area if you would be interested, otherwise you are also very welcome to explore and enjoy the natural environment on your own as you wish. Take a swim in our beautiful natural pool (poza), rest in a hammock or explore abandoned, ancient villages like nearby El Tesoro.
This reward is for one or two people (if two, you would stay in the same room). Your stay with us would need to be before the end of June 2022, but otherwise we can be quite flexible about your preferred dates.
This reward gives one person a free ticket to a week-long course of their choice that will be held by Sunseed within 2022. We are currently planning to hold various courses before the end of this year.
Hi everyone,
We're thrilled to share that we have reached our minimum goal, which means that we can give the landowners (Diego's daughters) a deposit of more than 50% of the total land price for the Diego gardens and can enter into a payment plan with them. But we hope that our crowdfunding will keep up momentum in the next 11 days, because we still have €11,575 to go and every little helps!
In other news, something both good and bad has been happening here over the last couple of weeks: we have had an enormous amount of rainfall, which is very unusual in the semi-arid climate we're in. You can see from the photos how our normally still, tranquil poza (natural pool) was transformed into a raging, muddy river which swept away reed beds and topsoil!
The good news is that the water table has been topped up and our gardens and drylands have had a good soak; as many of you know, water is a precious resource here. The bad news is that we had many days without electricity or wifi (since we rely on solar power), so most of us couldn't work as normal and we're still catching up on a backlog of work, including this blog for example.. So due to this chaotic time we're in (we're still fixing roof leaks and other things), there will be a slight delay in sending out your rewards, but we aim to have everything sent out by the end of April. We just wanted you to know that we haven't forgotten you!
Sending love and gratitude from a weather-resilient group of Sunseeders ;)
