THE HEART OF THE TRAINING
Our aims are to :
Help you develop confidence and independence in understanding the principles of abundance and in applying syntropic tools and processes.
Combine the joy of working in tune with nature with approaches that are both practical and effective.
Explore how plots and techniques evolve over the course of the year.
INTEGRATED TOOLS
For sharing and learning:
We support the French-speaking forum — open to everyone and designed to amplify the impact of shared experiences. It’s a way of moving from “a little garden in the corner” to a lively network of exchange and knowledge that can thrive in any climate!
Freshly launched, a brand-new wikisyntropy platform now makes it easier to access and organise the knowledge that’s been gathered.
An interactive map to meet your neighbours and build networks across your local area.

Over 9 hours of videos and podcasts are designed and edited like a mini-series, with chapters ranging from 5 to 25 minutes.
Topics are presented in a clear, lively, and detailed manner.
More than 6 hours of exercises, presentations, and interactive activities are sprinkled throughout the course, allowing you to actively absorb the knowledge and tools of syntropy.
A wealth of additional resources — videos, articles, and podcasts — are available for those who wish to explore certain subjects in greater depth.
The first three modules are accessible for one year from your registration.
Who is it for?
For enthusiasts and experienced practitioners alike, whether professionals or individuals, passionate or aspiring to be.
Previous in-person courses that led to the creation of this programme brought together people ranging from someone with just a sprig of rosemary on their balcony to seasoned permaculturists, casual gardeners, and agroecology specialists with over 40 years of experience.
Prerequirements
To fully appreciate the depth of this training, it is strongly recommended to read the book Welcome to Syntropy (2024, co-published by Terre Vivante and Joala Syntropy) — before, during, or after the course.
The training is accessible to deaf and hard-of-hearing participants.
Why an online course?
To promote the spread of syntropy fundamentals.
To meet the surge in demand… without making participants wait several years!
To be immediately accessible, from the comfort of your home and at your own pace.
To allow more time for what we do best: hands-on field experimentation and creating the highest-quality educational resources.
Course overview: The Seed, the Growth and the Possibilities!
THE SEED – Winter garden and fundamentals
THE GROWTH – Spring, summer, and deeper exploration

Price
€290 for the core training.
The course fee has been deliberately kept as accessible as possible, to benefit the widest possible audience.
We had no intention of matching courses priced at €700 or €2,000!
We have worked hard to make this course financially accessible. Creating such a high-quality programme required thousands of hours of work and a significant technical, material, and financial investment. Please respect our efforts… One course = One participant: we trust you!
