COB Farm

Success Story

The COB team implements projects on a range of fields, with a common aim: to explore and generate solutions for reducing our footprint on the environment. Their fields of activity include building with natural materials, farming through techniques of permaculture and RA, educating, networking and informing. The COB farm entered the Regenerative Farming Greece project and received support from experts in terms of the farm design and farming techniques towards the transition to RA.
