Circlefarming

About Circlefarming

The distance between society, especially city dwellers, from the natural environment is considerable. Agriculture has been isolated in the countryside. Out of sight and out of mind.

The countryside, the food industry, and the farmers themselves, have been swept along a journey of industrialisation, driven by politics and the needs of society.

Circlefarming tries to soften the hard division between urban and rural areas, at both the landscape and cultural level.

Reshaping the field Circlefarming radically intervenes with the way our foodlandscape has been designed in the past. By forming a cirle shaped field out of a rectangular field, the corners repurpose multifunctional margin space.

Space for biodiversity The margin space brings together agriculture, food forests, recreation, animals, water storage. Due to being interconnected, these spaces offer a great potential for biodiversity to thrive.

Circlefarming Research Circlefarming is a research project that looks into different dimensions of agriculture: small scale, communal scale and landscape scale. These trajectories run in different paces - short and longterm results - and involve a variety of people: farmers, scientist, artists and designers.
