What can a CBS student learn from GARDENING and PERMACULTURE?
Quite a lot according to Assistant Professor Isabel Fróes and Associate Professor Maribel Blasco who are starting a permaculture garden next to Kilen and Fasanvejen Metro Station. The garden both supports the volunteering students’ WELLBEING as well as inspire them to see that financial and monetary goals are not the only ones to pursue in their work and personal lives.
The garden is a PERMACULTURE garden meaning, among other things, that:
- Regenerative techniques to support soil health will be used, for instance the ‘no dig’ principle
- No pesticides or artificial fertilisers will be used in the garden
- Organic waste will be cycled back into the garden via a composting system, including waste from CBS canteen
- The garden will be as biodiverse as possible
- Water and other resources will be harvested
Besides this the garden will be a link between CBS Campus and Frederiksberg. Local citizens as well as students and employees at CBS can VOLUNTEER at the garden. Workshops and conferences will be held about permaculture techniques and principles.
If you are interested in volunteering, you are very welcome contact info.permahaven@cbs.dk email.
The work starts on Monday March 27at Copenhagen Business School. You are invited to join us for the PERMAHAVEN Launch day.
