About Barbara Scheltus - van den Berg

My family and I live an almost food-self sufficient life on the top of a hill in inland Croatia. Our permaculture farm is called "Bogata Suma", Croatian for "Rich forest".
I designed and developed our 12 hectares of terrain since 2008. We live with a polyculture and no dig food park (the vegetable garden), a food forest, a polyculture nut orchard that is disguised as a camp site and our newest project: the food savannah.

Not only the land is designed with permaculture ethics and principles; also aspects of our lives are designed. Like: how to learn to speak better Croatian with the help of our community. And a design for me as a permaculture facilitator.

Permaculture at Bogata Suma

Since 2008 we've been designing and developing our 12 hectares of Croatian land with permaculture principles. So if you want to see permaculture in action: you're welcome at Bogata Suma!

Work in progress in the forest garden!

We're finalizing our design for the forest garden and we've got help from Kenza who studies landscape design!
