Borrowing from and going beyond permaculture design philosophy Het Kloosterbos has evolved from community food forest to a way station, a learning place for rewilding (your) nature, in a network of such places throughout Europe (eventually).

LIVING LAB Podravlje is an outdoor educational and experimental site dedicated to permaculture, sustainable and smart agriculture. It is situated in Podravlje and established by OSPERA, an independent permaculture association from Osijek working since 2013. The lab serves as a learning hub for everyone from the local community with a focus on children and youth.
Following permaculture principles, the space integrates regenerative farming, biodiversity conservation, and circular economy practices.
Through workshops, co-creation approach in project development and citizen science activities, LIVING LAB Podravlje fosters knowledge-sharing and community resilience. It actively supports mental well-being through nature-based education (in the area of the lab and nearby forest), particularly focusing on early childhood development and experiential learning.
The site is also a collaborative hub for permaculture practitioners aiming to scale up sustainable solutions within region!
