ABOUT Us
We’re a family of five living in the heart of Jutland, Denmark, in a charming early 20th-century home surrounded by a lush 1,600m² garden. Our street, nestled between villas and apartment blocks, may look ordinary—but step into our backyard, and you'll find something quite different.
​
From Lawn to Life
Since 2017, we’ve been transforming our traditional lawn into a thriving, edible landscape. Fruit trees, berries, nuts, herbs, and perennial vegetables have replaced ornamental grass. It’s part of our journey toward greater self-sufficiency, deeper biodiversity, and healthier soil.
​
Our lifestyle is evolving, too. We’re embracing permaculture principles—voluntary frugality, slow living, and a stronger connection to nature. It’s not just about gardening; it’s about rethinking how we live, consume, and share.
What We Do
In 2022, we founded A&B Permaculture—a small consultancy with a big mission:
To share the knowledge and practical tools needed to live more sustainably.
We offer:
-
Courses and Workshops on permaculture design, resilient cooking, and seasonal living
-
Garden Tours to see our homestead in action and learn hands-on techniques
-
Consulting Services for those who want to turn their gardens into thriving ecosystems
Whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your practice, we’re here to help.

Why It Matters
Conventional, manicured gardens may look tidy—but they often consume high amounts of water, energy, and time, while offering little benefit to the environment. We believe gardens can be beautiful and functional. Productive and regenerative.
By setting an example, we hope to inspire others to rethink their green spaces, reduce lawn areas, and create gardens that nourish both people and planet.
​
Join the Movement
We’re building a network of like-minded people across Denmark and beyond—people who care about the future and want to live in harmony with the natural world.
