End 2021, the Hortus Cyrenaicus “was born”. The idea of having a farm that allows to keep the distance to policy makers and other unpleasant people, he was living without TV for more than three years already and enjoying the life as it comes…
The implementation of the Hortus Cyrenaicus as an ecovillage or as a set of ecovillage projects came up recently, when it became clear, that three, four, five people are not enough to keep the farm running. The idea to open the projects, first of all by introducing eco-tourism in a special environment. He ordered Yourtas from Kyrgyzstan which should have been installed in May 2022 already, but administrative barriers keep the process delayed, unfortunately. The Hortus shall have a range of buildings in natural conditions, like the yourtas, wood houses, clay houses etc.
There are several projects already and every day new ideas are raising. In order to have a kind of holistic approach with the Hortus Cyrenaicus, the idea was to enlarge the land scape to about 10 ha and invite more interested people to join and taking over some of the projects.
In the coming two years, Frank would be enlighten if his dream could be realized and the farm is fully operative. Concentrating on some fruit processing’s, marketing of the products and doing Music as the main purpose of life while enjoying the paradise atmosphere in the Greek mountains with his joining family members, friends and supporters…
