At Levi’s Nek Farm, preparing the land is part of a permaculture approach, where respect for the soil and the balance of ecosystems guide every step. To work the land gently and efficiently, the team can count on a valuable ally: the farm horse.
It pulls light ploughing equipment and seed drills, allowing furrows to be opened without compacting the soil, promoting natural respiration and maintaining a living structure, which is essential in permaculture.
This collaboration between the young people and their horse perfectly illustrates the spirit of Levi’s Nek: agriculture on a human scale, sustainable and in harmony with living things.
